New Grant Inquiry

If you are interested in seeking a grant, please fill out the New Grant Inquiry Form.

First, here’s what you need to consider:

• Have you discussed this idea with your supervisor and obtained support for proceeding?  (Please do this before bringing us the form.)
   
• Have you talked with those whose work groups would be affected if the grant were funded?  (Please do this before bringing us the form.)
   
• If a grant is obtained, how will you be involved?  Will you manage the grant, be involved in teaching, or do you see some other role for yourself?
   
• Are you the content expert?  If not, are there content experts willing to work with us?
   
• Are you committed to assisting in writing the grant?
   
• Have you considered how the idea will fit into the Eastfield College long- or short-term goals?
   
• Are there others at EFC or in the District who are interested in this idea?
   
• Have you done any research to see if other colleges are doing something similar?  (This will assist us in determining if the idea is fundable, and who might fund it.) 

 The Resource and Community Development Office will do the following:

• We will evaluate your submitted form for feasibility and make an appointment to discuss your ideas.
   
• If we decide to go forward, we will obtain the President and VP signatures, (permission to proceed) or we will ask you to do that.
   
• We will search for funding sources.
   
• We will meet with you and others to develop proposal content and we will work with you to write the proposal.
   
• We will submit the proposal and notify you of the results.
