| The Hudson-Webber Foundation reviews grant requests during three periods
each year. The Foundation strongly encourages a requesting organization to
discuss their proposed program with Foundation staff before submitting a
grant request. Requests received by April 15 are considered at the July Board
meeting. Requests received by August 15 are considered at the December
Board meeting. Requests received by December 15 are considered at the
April Board meeting in the following year. Requests received after the April
15, August 15, and December 15 cutoff dates are generally not considered
until the next review period. The Foundation’s President reviews all grant
requests with the assistance of the Program Director. The President may
turn down proposals that are not within the Foundation's geographic area
or current program missions and priorities. For those proposals that fall
within the Foundation's current program priorities and guidelines, further
investigation may be conducted or additional information and supporting
data may be requested.
After review by the President, each request is submitted to a Foundation
committee for thorough review and evaluation. This Committee also may
initiate further investigation if deemed necessary.
Finally, each request is considered at a regular meeting of the Foundation's
Board of Trustees. After reviewing Committee recommendations, the Board
makes final decisions and approves or denies each request. |
