Grant Agreement Process Update – Effective July 1, 2025

Beginning July 1, 2025, all grant recipients will be required to complete a Grant Award Agreement through our updated online process. This signed agreement must be submitted before any grant funds can be disbursed.

An authorized representative of the recipient organization will be asked to complete the form electronically. Instructions will be provided as part of the grant award notification.

This update aligns with National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations and supports a more efficient and consistent grantmaking process across all CKCF affiliates.

Thank you for your patience and partnership as we continue improving our systems to better serve our communities.
