If your organization intends to apply for funding from The Dayton Foundation, we highly recommend that you attend the Foundation's discretinary grants program orientation on Wednesday, June 9, 2010, from 9 to 10:30 a.m. The deadline to register is Wednesday, June 2.

The first step in the Foundation's discretionary grant application process is to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) through our online LOI system. The LOI provides the Foundation with an overview of a not-for-profit organization's funding request. If, after the Grants Committee has reviewed your organization's LOI and determined that the project falls within our funding guidelines, you will be sent a full grant application.
