Narrative – Please respond to the following questions. Time is precious as organizations are struggling to adapt and we have designed this grant application to be less time consuming than normal. Please do not labor over the length or written style of this application. Short answers and/or bulleted responses are fine.

1. Organization Background- Discuss the founding and development of the organization. Explain the original issue and/or opportunity the organization was founded to address and how that may have changed over time.

2. COVID-19 impact- Describe how COVID-19 has changed the work of the organization. Are there particular “pain-points” or immediate needs? What may go back to normal following the crisis and how do you see the organization permanently changed?

3. Purpose of request- How does the organization plan to respond to this moment? Please elaborate on the one-sentence purpose of request above. How will this grant support the organization’s overall response to the crisis?

What possible scenarios are being considered as you plan for the next 12-24 months? Has the board approved a revised budget? If so, what changes were made?

5. Additional support/relief- what other COVID-19 support or relief has the organization sought? Was this support obtained? Please include any information about why or why not.
