Frequently Asked Questions

Q:

How many times per year does LAFF make grants?

We make decisions once per year but all grant checks are sent out in December.


Q:

Do you fund general operating grants?

A:

Yes, although we still would like to see goals and objectives for the grant period.


Q:

Can we contact any Board Member or representative of the Foundation to see if our organization can apply?

A:

Currently, no, however organizations are encouraged to use the LOI form if they would like to be considered for funding.


Q:

How does an organization know if it is invited to apply?

A:

We will contact you first. Our board members usually have close relationships with grantees. We also have a process to learn more about organizations we may not know as well. However, these organizations are selected by board members only.
