How to Apply
Requests for Grant Funding are entertained and considered by the Foundation on a rolling basis throughout the calendar year. Decisions as to the merits of a request, and decisions as to the timing of any disbursement of funding, are entirely at the discretion of the Foundation Board.
Only those requests to fund a project or program which can be demonstrated to be directly related to the health issues of a community, or a group within a community, or which can be demonstrated to be likely to improve health, quality of life, or access to care within a community in Lorain County, will be considered by the Foundation for funding.
Step 1. Complete the Request for Grant Funding Application
It is recommended that requesting organizations submit as much information as possible in support of the request. Of particular importance is information describing the relationship of the proposed or continuing project or program to an impact upon the improved health or improved access to care within a community. If the purchase of equipment is to be a part of the project or program, any information regarding the proposed equipment should be appended to the request application.
Step 2. Sign and Date the Request for Funding
Ascertain that the person signing the request application has authority to act on behalf of the organization.
Step 3. Submit the Request for Grant Funding (along with any supporting documentation) Via Mail to:
BLACK RIVER EDUCATION AND WELLNESS FOUNDATION
33240 Electric Blvd.
AVON LAKE, OH 44012

The person identified as the Primary Contact for the requesting organization will be contacted by the Foundation to acknowledge receipt of the Request. If, at the Foundation Board’s discretion, the Board wishes to interview a representative of the requesting organization regarding any aspect of the Request or the project or program, the Foundation will contact the organization's Primary Contact at the number provided.
