However, once submitted, no further revisions are allowed. Applications close automatically at  5:00:00 p.m. on Friday, October 4, 2024.  If you haven’t completed your application you won’t be able to submit it.   
• All required information and documentation must be uploaded including proposals from a vendor, quotes or estimates, preliminary invoices, etc. of what the grant will fund.   Incomplete applications will be automatically rejected.
• You MUST have every question from the Company background & Project information answered.  Please copy and paste the form found in the guidelines into your application.  If the answers to these questions are buried in a proposal and the judges can’t find them your application will be rejected.
