Fisher House Foundation Seeks Proposals for 2014 Newman’s Own Awards to Support Service Members and Their Families
DEADLINE: APRIL 23, 2014
The Fisher House Foundation, a private-public partnership that supports America’s military in times of need, is accepting proposals from nonprofit organizations for the 2014 Newman’s Own Awards for creative ideas to improve the quality of life of service members and their families.
Grants of up to $50,000 will be awarded in recognition of the most innovative ideas to improve the quality of life of veterans and active duty, Reserve, and National Guard service members and their families facing the stress of long deployments and separation and/or the long-term effects associated with service. Award funds cannot be used to pay salaries or wages.
To be eligible, an organization must be composed primarily of volunteers and/or be a nonprofit organization as defined in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, any organization proposing a program that will affect or take place on a Department of Defense installation will be asked to present documentation that their programs are approved for operation by the installation commander.
See the Fisher House Web site for complete program guidelines, an FAQ, and application instructions.
