How to Apply

The foundation has three meetings per year to consider grant proposals:

Step 1

IDENTIFY A CAPITAL NEED

Please review the What We Fund section for current guidelines and funding interests. We encourage all applicants to contact the foundation at info@hoblitzelle.org or by calling (214) 373-0462 to discuss a potential grant opportunity before submitting an application. Note that grants are typically not made to an organization more than once every three to four years.

Step 2

PREPARE TO APPLY FOR A GRANT

In addition to general information about the organization, the specific capital request, and the budget, the following information is required to be submitted with your grant application:

1.       Proof of Tax-Exempt Status: IRS Exemption Letter
2.       Most Recent Tax Return: Form 990
3.       Most Recent Audited Financial Statements
4.       List of Board of Directors
5.       Major Donor Report: Review of other financial support the Organization received over the past three years from other foundations and donors

APPLY FOR A GRANT - online application

Step 3

RECEIVE COMMUNICATION ABOUT THE GRANT REQUEST

Hoblitzelle Foundation communicates with potential grantees through e-mail and/or phone.  If additional information is needed to support the grant request or if a site visit is to be scheduled, the organization will be contacted by Foundation staff.

Grant decisions are e-mailed by the end of May, September, and January, approximately six weeks after the grant request deadline.   

You can access the grants management system anytime to check the status and submit a grant agreement.
