We target a grant of a minimum $100,000 . Keep in mind that organizations who apply also receive exposure to our membership which is made up of more than  \n200 philanthropic women in Peoria, Tazewell and Woodford counties. This alone is valuable to any organization operating in the Tri-county area!  \n● What is the value of the Impact Central Illinois INSPIRE Grant?  \no In 2022, it is our goal to fund one Inspire Grant in the amount of $20,000 . Keep in mind that organizations who apply also receive exposure to our membership which is made up of more than 200 philanthropic women in Peoria, Tazewell and Woodford counties. This alone is valuable to any organization operating in the Tri-county area!  \n● Can my organization apply for both the IMPACT Grant and the INSPIRE Grant in the same year?  \no No. Organizations can apply for only one Impact Central Illinois grant per year based on the organization’s annual gross revenue. 501(c)3 organizations with gross revenues greater than or equal to $250,000 are eligible to compete for the IMPACT grant, and 501(c)3 organizations with gross revenues less than $250,000 are eligible to compete for the INSPIRE grant.  \n● Can I submit a proposal for less than the full amount of either the IMPACT or INSPIRE Grants?  \no No. All applicants must utilize the full amount of the Impact Central Illinois grant for which they apply. Funding for programs that require a lesser amount will NOT be considered.  \n● Can I submit a proposal that has a total budget greater than the full amount of either the IMPACT or INSPIRE Grants?  \no Yes. If your program’s budget exceeds the full amount of the Impact Central Illinois grant for which you apply, you will be required to delineate the portion of the program that is to be funded by that Impact Central Illinois grant. You will also be asked to identify the additional sources of funding that have been previously secured, or applied for, in order to complete the program.  \n● How do I know which focus area is appropriate for my program?  \no Impact Central Illinois cannot advise you on selecting an appropriate focus area. A program could fall into more than one focus area. Because the number and quality of applicants in any given focus area can vary from year to year it would be unfair for Impact Central Illinois to guide any individual applicant toward a specific focus area.  \n● If I am unsure which focus area is appropriate for my program, can I leave it blank and allow Impact Central Illinois to select a focus area for me?  \no No. Applicants must select a focus area on their own. Letters of Inquiry and Grant Applications without a selected Focus Area will be deemed incomplete and therefore not considered.  \n● Can my organization submit a Letter of Inquiry/Grant Application in more than one focus area?  \no No. Organizations can submit only one application per year.  \n● My organization is faith-based. What restrictions apply to faith-based organizations seeking consideration for an Impact Central Illinois grant?  \no The Grant Guidelines state that Impact Central Illinois will NOT fund “fraternal, sectarian or religious organizations where the grant is intended to benefit its members/adherents or for inherently religious activities.” Impact Central Illinois suggests that faith-based organizations take steps to ensure that any inherently religious activities – for example: worship, religious instruction or proselytization  \n-are separate, in time or location, from the services that would be funded by an Impact Central Illinois grant. In addition, a grantees program may not require participants to attend or take part in any religious activities and may not discriminate against a current or prospective program beneficiary on th","cbCaijO1gh2HSh1c","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijO1gh2HSh1c","pdf",269141,6,"English","# Frequently Asked Questions\n## Grant value and timing\n## Application eligibility and limits\n## Proposal funding amount and budgets\n## Focus area selection and completeness\n## Faith-based organization requirements\n## Collaboration and fiscal partners\n## 501(c)(3) and tax status documentation\n## Local offices and service areas","[{\"question\":\"What factors determine the value of the Impact Central Illinois IMPACT grant?\",\"answer\":\"The grant amount depends on the organization’s membership level and is announced after January 1st of the grant award year.
