Program Enhancement Grant Application Guidelines

1. The Program Enhancement Grants are designed to provide funding for projects in one of six areas:

• Emergency needs of IAHPERD
• Advocacy projects
• Public relations projects
• Educational program enhancement
• Media events
• Short term loans

2. All IAHPERD members in good standing may apply for this grant.

3. The grant deadlines are Feb 15 and Sept 1.

4. A Program Enhancement Grant Review Committee reviews all grant applications and makes recommendations to the IAHPERD Executive Board. The Executive Board has final say on whether the grants are funded or disallowed.

5. To apply for a Program Enhancement Grant, submit:

• six copies of an application consisting of a sheet containing contact information for the applicants,
• a brief statement explaining the purpose of the project and a justification for why IAHPERD should support it,
• an itemized and prioritized budget, 
• and a justification statement for each item listed in the budget.

6. If the grant application is approved, all recipients must perform a post project presentation of outcomes to IAHPERD either through an article published in the IAHPERD Journal or by a presentation at the IAHPERD conference. Failure to do so will automatically exclude all applicants from future IAHPERD funding.

7. Submit application to:
