  • Budget

  • Fill out the applicable categories with an amount (can be zero) and a 1–2 sentence description of what the funds will be used for. 

    For each category:

    • The top box should show the total projected cost required to complete your project successfully. This amount may exceed $10,000 so that we understand the full scope of your project.
    • The box underneath should show the portion of costs requested from NYFIC’s grant. The sum of all requested amounts across categories must not exceed $10,000.

    Categories are determined by NYFIC’s reporting requirements and are not intended to suggest specific uses. Successful proposals will require an itemized budget at the time of award.

    At the bottom of the budget form, please explain how you will cover the balance of costs beyond the NYFIC grant request.
