Types of Grants:

FAHF prefers to issue project grants as opposed to general support grants. Because the foundation has a relationship building focus, project grants allows us to work closely on an ongoing bases to continue the mission of the foundation. Therefore the grant must have a start date and end date, with quantifiable outcomes. Grants may be considered for renewal at the end of the grant cycle, based on the Foundation's evaluation and overall quantifiable impact.
