FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q : My organization is not located in the mid-Atlantic region. Would I still have a chance if I apply?

A: Organizations located outside the designated area will no longer be considered and should look elsewhere for funding.

Q: Can I submit a proposal for a multi-year project?

A: The Joseph Robert Foundation is no longer accepting multi-year project applications. Applicants will need to reapply each year.

Q: I received a grant from the Joseph Robert Foundation last year. If I reapply this year am I guaranteed to receive a new grant?

A: In most cases, applicants will receive new JRF funding, although the amount might vary. However, this is at the discretion of the Board of Directors. There are a number of circumstances where repeat applicants might not receive continued funding and if that is the case, they will be informed as to the reasons why support is being denied.

Q: If my project is completed in less than a year, can I re-apply for new funding during the same year?

A: No. No recipient can receive funding more than once during a calendar year.
