1 Lions Lions Clubs Clubs International Foundation International Foundation How to Apply for an LCIF Standard Grant What is an LCIF Standard Grant? An LCIF Standard grant is a matching grant opportunity available to Lions Districts and Multiple Districts. These Lions-led service projects focus on addressing unmet humanitarian needs in local communities where there is a major construction or equipment need. Standard grants are approved for large-scale projects that serve many people, primarily underserved and needy populations on a long-term basis. The grant awards range from US$10,000 up to US$100,000. Strong Lions involvement and identity is an important element of Standard grant projects. Lions take the lead in initiating the project and invest their time in the development, coordination, fundraising and implementation of the project. Such support greatly extends a project s impact and raises the Lions identity in the community. Standard grants are intended to support projects that are beyond the scope of traditional Lions fundraising activities. Local matching funding can come from many sources: Lions Clubs, the District, Multiple District and non-lions sources. Standard Grant Project Example: Key Elements of a Standard Grant Project: Standard grants may support a variety of projects, including schools for the disabled, orphanages, hospitals and medical clinics, care centers for the elderly, eye banks, food banks, hospice centers, vocational training facilities for the disabled and health screening programs, to name a few. There are many possibilities for a Standard grant project, as the needs within each community are different. However, every Standard grant project does the following: Addresses an important humanitarian need Supports efforts too large for a District/Multiple District to undertake alone Provides long-term benefits to a local community Impacts entire communities and serves large populations Involves Lions in the development and delivery of service Identifies Lions as closely involved with the project Raises significant funds from local Lions Projects or Activities Not Eligible for LCIF Standard Grant Funding: Situations more appropriately funded by the local government or other institutions Operating expenses or salaries of established programs and institutions Grants intended to repay loans, establish financial reserves, or provide reimbursement Single club projects; a minimum of two clubs is required Community enhancement: aesthetic improvements, monuments and memorials, parks, swimming pools, playgrounds, athletic fields, clubhouses, community and multi-purpose centers Individual assistance, one-time events, sponsorships, scholarships, and fellowships Consumable supplies, shipping, training expenses, travel and lodging Scientific research projects; however, applications may be submitted for research equipment and the construction of a Lions-affiliated research center Projects that commence prior to Board approval The Lions of District 35-I supported the construction of a new guide dog training facility in Palmetto, Florida, USA, with a US$75,000 Standard grant. The expansion of the Southeastern Guide Dog Center includes new kennels and a veterinary clinic to train guide dogs. To date, more than 2,800 guide dogs have been successfully paired with students.

2 What are the Steps to Applying for a Standard Grant? Step 1: Getting Started Before filling out an application, Lions should take the lead in developing a project for their community and establishing communication with any project partners. As such, groups of Lions may be involved at the Club, District or Multiple District level. Projects develop according to local circumstances. The grant application and criteria should be read thoroughly before being completed. Applicant Lions are advised to consult with LCIF staff prior to submitting an application to determine their project s eligibility and the application deadline dates. The LCIF Multiple District or District Coordinator can also assist Lions in this process. When Lions have identified a project that meets all of the criteria, a fully completed application and any requested supporting documentation can be submitted. Refer to the grant application form for specifics. Completed applications must be received at least 60 days prior to the board meeting. District level applications require the signature of the District Governor and the endorsement of the District Cabinet Multiple District level applications require the signature of the Council Chairperson and the endorsement of the Multiple District Council Step 2: Application Submission and Preliminary Review Once the grant application and supplementary information is complete, the application should be sent directly to the LCIF Humanitarian Programs Department. Lions should keep a copy of the application and all correspondence with LCIF for their records. Upon receiving the application, LCIF will assign it a unique LCIF tracking number that will remain specific to the grant application throughout the grant process. The application will then undergo a preliminary review by LCIF staff to determine its eligibility. The preliminary review evaluates the proposed plan of action, technical aspects of project, the level of Lions involvement and the application s overall level of completeness. Following the preliminary review, LCIF staff will provide detailed feedback on the application including its eligibility, level of completeness, and any questions or concerns. Lions may be asked to revise the grant application or provide additional information. The preliminary review helps to develop the strongest possible application in preparation for a final review by the Board. An application may be approved, reduced, tabled or denied by the Board. NOTE: Since additional information is frequently requested during the preliminary review process, it is recommended that applications be submitted well in advance of the application deadline. Applications that are incomplete and require additional time for clarification of details, or those that arrive after the application deadline, may be held over for review at a later board meeting. Step 3: Board Review and Post Approval Grant applications that are determined to be eligible in meeting the grant criteria will move forward for Board review. If a grant is approved, the District Governor/Council Chairperson in office at the time of approval will be the grant administrator and is responsible for disbursing the funds and the financial accounting for the grant. An award letter and grant agreement will be sent to the grant administrator, the project chairperson and any project partners, detailing the terms and conditions of the grant, as well as the financial and reporting requirements. The grant administrator is responsible for sending LCIF a final report on the project, no later than three months after project completion; Lions have a maximum of 2-years to complete a Standard grant project. A report form is supplied to the grant administrator at the time the grant is approved. The report must be reviewed and approved by the District Cabinet/Multiple District Council before it is sent to LCIF. Failure to submit a final report in a timely manner may impact the District/Multiple District s eligibility to submit future standard grant applications.

5 STANDARD GRANT CRITERIA AND REGULATIONS MISSION STATEMENT AND FUNDING PRIORITIES Standard grants provide capital funding to help establish or expand Lions-initiated service projects that address critical and diverse human and social needs around the globe. Funding is prioritized for the equipment and infrastructure needs of such projects. All grant proposals should meet one or more of Lions Clubs International Foundation's (LCIF) traditional funding concerns: humanitarian services, aid for people who are blind and disabled and long-term disaster relief. Humanitarian services Grants awarded in this area target critical health and human service needs not adequately addressed by governments and other funding sources. Commonly funded projects include mobile health units, hospices, nursing homes, medical units, street children's homes, schools in developing countries and other projects consistent with Lions' humanitarian work. Aid for people who are blind and/or disabled Building on Lions historic commitment to serving and empowering people who are blind or disabled, priority is also given to projects that provide rehabilitation and educational opportunities for these populations. Grants are frequently awarded for eye clinics and research centers, rehabilitation and mobility training centers, vocational training institutes, adaptive technology units and other related initiatives. Grants fund projects that are large-scale and serve many people; grants are not available for individuals. Disaster reconstruction In keeping with LCIF s commitment to disaster relief, Standard grants may be requested for the long-term reconstruction of important public and community facilities damaged or destroyed by natural disasters, with an emphasis on rebuilding schools and hospitals. Standard grants may be applied for after all other LCIF funding has been fully expended (such as Major Catastrophe grants and Designated grants). FUNDING AND LEVELS OF SUPPORT Standard grants are awarded from US$10,000 up to US$100,000 matching funds per project. Applications from developing countries are eligible for up to 75 percent of the total project budget. Applications from developed countries are eligible for up to 50 percent of the total project budget (see regulation five). DEADLINES The LCIF Board of Trustees reviews all eligible Standard grant applications three times per year. Applications must be received at least 60 days prior to the scheduled board meeting and meet all criteria to be considered. Please visit to see grant deadlines.

6 STANDARD GRANT CRITERIA 1. Grants are considered for projects exceeding the financial resources and fundraising capabilities of the applicant Lions district and participating clubs. There must be at least two clubs involved in the development and financial support of the project. 2. Projects should serve many people, and ideally entire communities, to maximize the charitable impact of LCIF funding. Additionally, priority is given to projects serving the neediest sectors of society and demonstrating financial need. 3. Grants may not be requested for community enhancement-type projects, such as the development of libraries, community centers, swimming pools, athletic fields and parks. Grants are typically not available for upgrades resulting from new government regulations. 4. Projects that seek LCIF funding shall have a strong Lions identity and ongoing involvement of local Lions. Priority is given to projects in which Lions provide volunteer services, have a track record of previous support, and a clearly identifiable role in helping administer the project and/or institution involved. 5. In addition to Lions involvement and identity with the project, the applicant Lions district and participating clubs must make a significant financial commitment to the project. At least half of the local matching funds must be secured and/or raised by the Lions submitting the grant application. 6. The local matching funds may only be in the form of cash contributions. In-kind donations, whether land, labor or materials, will strengthen the proposal and should be highlighted in the project write up, but such in-kind support may not be included in the budget as part of the matching funds toward the LCIF grant. Additionally, local matching funds must represent cash available or pledged for the current project being proposed. 7. Grants shall not be made on a continuing basis to any single project*. Projects or institutions receiving a Standard grant must wait one year after submission of the final grant report before applying for a new grant, provided that the previous grant for the same project has met its objectives. 8. Funding for operating expenses may be included as part of a project budget and grant request, but only when such funds would be used to initiate or significantly expand services of the applicant organization. The applicant must demonstrate how such operating expenses will be sustained once LCIF grant funds are expended. 9. Although many health care projects qualify for consideration, grants may not be requested for construction of new hospital facilities/medical clinics sponsored by only a few Lions clubs. Priority will instead be given to projects aiming to upgrade and expand existing health care facilities. Consequently, grants for the construction of new Lions hospitals or medical clinics may only be considered for the following: 1) health facilities at the district level with the active involvement of several clubs; and/or 2) expansion of existing Lions hospitals/medical clinics with a proven track record of success. Additionally, grant applications requesting support for health care facilities shall only be considered for non-profit or public institutions with a demonstrated commitment to serving the poor and uninsured. With respect to eye hospitals in developing countries, districts or multiple districts should apply to LCIF s SightFirst Program, which has separate criteria and technical infrastructure to guide the development, review and consideration of such projects. 10. Standard grants are not available for projects more appropriately addressed through other LCIF grant programs. Information on other Foundation programs is available at or by contacting LCIF. 11. Projects receiving grant funding shall be clearly identified as being made possible by LCIF through appropriate recognition, signs and public relations activities. LCIF will provide specifications on such recognition at time of approval. Final grant reports must include confirmation of recognition. 12. Each grant application is judged solely on its own merit and the degree to which it meets the criteria and the humanitarian funding priorities of LCIF as established by the Board of Trustees. *An exception to this requirement is a large-scale project that involves several districts. In these cases, each participating district may submit a grant application for separate and distinct elements of the overall project. These multiple requests will be considered on a case-bycase basis where a maximum of three Standard grant applications may be considered for a single beneficiary project at any one time. 2 L i o n s C l u b s I n t e r n a t i o n a l F o u n d a t i o n

7 STANDARD GRANT REGULATIONS 1. Grant applicants must submit their project proposals using the LCIF-27 Standard Grant Application form, completing the application form in its entirety. The project budget must clearly itemize all project income sources and expense items; project income must equal expense. Incomplete applications or proposals submitted in other formats will be ineligible. 2. Grant proposals may be submitted by any Lions district (single, sub or multiple). Applications submitted by single or sub-districts must be signed by the current district governor and be certified via resolution by the district cabinet and thereafter with notification to the council chairperson. Multiple district applications shall be signed by the council chairperson and certified via resolution by the council of governors. The appropriate cabinet or council meeting minutes at which the application was certified must be submitted with the application. 3. If a Standard grant project is to take place in a country outside the applicant district, the project shall have the endorsement and active involvement of the local Lions district. In countries where there are clubs but no district structure, the local clubs closest to the project shall endorse the project. In countries where no clubs exist at present, the applicant Lions district or multiple district must be able to demonstrate the ability to properly oversee, evaluate and report on the project. 4. The maximum grant amount that may be requested is US$100,000 and the minimum grant amount that may be requested is US$10,000. If approved, the grant funds shall not be disbursed until the required matching funds are collected locally, per the approved project budget. 5. Grants may only be requested for up to 50 percent of the project budget for developed countries. Developing countries, as defined by the United Nations, shall be eligible to apply for up to 75 percent funding. The minimum contribution regulation is determined for the district or multiple district submitting the application. (NOTE: Maximum grant request is limited to US$100,000.) 6. A district may only have two Standard grant applications and/or approved grants in process at any one time. For districts comprising multiple countries, each country shall be able to have two applications or projects in process. In considering a second grant for a district or country, LCIF will take into consideration the progress being made on the ongoing LCIF-funded project. 7. Standard grants are intended for projects in the early developmental (planning) stages. The project that LCIF is being asked to fund should not have commenced. Additionally, completed projects are not eligible for funding, nor shall grants be used to repay loans, establish financial reserves or reimburse loans. Projects requesting funding as a reimbursement are not eligible. 8. Lions and/or their families should not receive direct or professional benefit or have proprietary interest in projects receiving LCIF assistance. 9. Approved grants are made payable to the appropriate Lions district (single, sub or multiple). The district governor or multiple district council chairperson in office at the time the grant is approved shall serve as grant administrator for the life of the project. It shall be his/her responsibility to disburse funds to the project and account for the LCIF grant funding. If a project is carried over into a new fiscal year, the grant administrator must provide copies of progress and final project reports submitted to LCIF to the current district cabinet or multiple council. LCIF reserves the rights to replace grant administrators as necessary. 10. Grant recipients are responsible for submission of a thorough report detailing project results and the exact use of LCIF funds upon completion of the project (report forms are issued with grant award letters). Districts or multiple districts failing to submit such a report for a completed project will not be eligible to receive any additional grants. 11. The LCIF Board of Trustees meets three times annually. These meetings are held in September/October, March/April and June. Deadline dates may be found at or by contacting LCIF directly. Grant applications must be received at LCIF in completed form at least 60-days before an LCIF Board of Trustees meeting in order for possible consideration at that meeting. Since additional information is frequently requested, it is recommended that applications be submitted well in advance of the application deadline. NOTE: Applications that are incomplete or require additional time for clarification of details may be held over for review at a later Board meeting. 12. Applications previously withdrawn or rejected may be resubmitted only if they have been revised to address the reasons for denial/ withdrawal. 13. Applicants failing to answer correspondence from LCIF on their application within 120 days will result in their application being subject to withdrawal. Resubmission may be required. 14. Applicants have six-months from the date of approval to collect and secure their local matching funding. Note: LCIF does not release grant funds until the local matching funding is collected and readily available for the implementation of the project. Approved grant-funded projects shall be implemented in a reasonable timeframe and completed within two-years from the date of the grant approval. Extensions may be considered on a case-by-case basis. After sufficient consultation with the applicant, LCIF retains the authority to rescind grants that are either not initiated or not making sufficient progress within this two-year timeframe. Any disbursed funds that are not adequately documented shall be returned to LCIF if the grant is rescinded. L i o n s C l u b s I n t e r n a t i o n a l F o u n d a t i o n 3
