BEFORE APPLYING
There are grant writing workshops each grant cycle to assist grantseekers in preparing their proposals and to answer their questions. Visit our website (
fusiongroup.org), our Facebook (Fusion Partnerships), or call (410)889-4700 for information on dates, times, and locations of all sessions. First time applicants are strongly encouraged to attend one of these sessions. After attending an orientation session, limited one-on-one technical assistance is available to groups as they develop their proposal.
AFTER APPLYING
After proposals have been submitted and read by members of the inFusion Grants Committee, a number of groups will be invited to be interviewed. A total of 4 individuals may attend the interview. Graphics, including charts or materials produced, as well as program beneficiaries, are appropriate at these interviews but not necessary.
AFTER SELECTIONS ARE MADE
You will receive a letter of denial or acceptance via email or mail. For those who receive funding, grantees will be required to attend an orientation session prior to fund release. These sessions will provide assistance with the implementation of the grant proposal. Technical assistance will also be available during the grant period on a routine basis and as needed.
Within 45 days after grant activities are completed, grant recipients will be expected to provide a report regarding outcomes and accomplishments. A small number of grants will be evaluated on an in-depth basis. If chosen for this assessment, a grant recipient will be expected to cooperate with all evaluation requests.
