Readiness Guidelines

The City of Orlando encourages all City of Orlando registered neighborhood organizations to partner with a nonprofit organization that is applying for grant funding. However, careful consideration of the nonprofit organization and neighborhood organization’s eligibility and true capacity to successfully complete the proposed project within nine (9) months should be examined before applying for a grant.

Please consider the following requirements before applying. If you feel you are not prepared to apply this year, use this information to begin planning for the next grant year, which will begin in late Spring 2008.

  • identify an accountable individual from the nonprofit organization to serve as the project leader to administer the grant, as well as a project team member from the nonprofit organization who will pledge to serve as an interim project leader, should the need arise

  • designate one (1) individual from the nonprofit organization and two (2) individuals who reside within the neighborhood organization to attend an application workshop

  • form a project team consisting of two (2) individuals from the nonprofit organization and a minimum of three (3) neighborhood organization volunteers

  • participate in the MFBCMG project team orientation conducted by the Office of Neighborhoods & Community Affairs following the grant award

  • attend a mandatory project planning and training session

  • involve neighborhood residents directly in all phases of the project

  • report all sources and amounts of funds used for the proposed project and explain how the funds will be used

  • provide documentation (receipts, etc.) for all grant-related funds expended during the project and submit with quarterly reports

  • be able to provide three (3) cost estimates for expenses of $250 or more from established vendors

  • submit timely quarterly reports on the status of the project

  • track and submit volunteer hours

  • keep copies of reports for three (3) years
