Types of Funding

For example, if the original request is for $10,000, the maximum amount for the second year is $5,000 and $2,500 for the third year.
- One-time Funding: This funding is for a specific amount with no further funding needed.
- Ongoing Funding: This funding is for projects deemed appropriate for addressing a community health need on a continual basis. An annual review of the project is mandatory.
