Celebration

Recommendations

Info

• Responsibility – who will manage this event and what support do they need. • Evaluation – explain how you intend to measure how successful the celebration will be. • Budget – list all items of anticipated income and expenditure, including administration costs. Note any other sources of funding that you have approached for this event and when you expect a response. State how much the organisation is providing. • Where available, attach professional quotes. • Ask for a specific amount of money that is realistic for the event budget and of the size of the grant usually made by the funding body. In many cases, your request will be less than the total expenses identified in the budget. • List address and phone numbers of two people who can provide the funder with any further information or clarification. • List two or more referees from outside your own organisation who understand the event and support it. 5 Review your application Whether you received funding or not, it’s always good practice to look at what went well and what could have gone better. You can also ask the funder what you could do differently next time. Remember, relying on grants alone for your continued celebrations may put your events at risk for the future, so keep your funding options open.
