Yes. Regardless of whether or not your organization receives a grant from the Dana Brown Charitable Trust, you can only submit one Letter of Intent per year. That means if you submit a Letter of Intent for the 2024 Spring grant cycle, you cannot submit another Letter of Intent until the 2025 Spring grant cycle.
Additionally, suppose you are invited to submit a full grant application, regardless of whether or not you receive funding. In that case, you can still not submit a new Letter of Intent until the following year.
The only exception to this process is the Collaborative Grant Request. An organization can apply individually for an award, and regardless of whether they were awarded or declined, they can participate in the next grant cycle if two (2) or more 501(c)3 organizations, both over four (4) years in existence, submit this type of grant request outlined in this FAQ section.
Finally, suppose you do receive funding from The Dana Brown Charitable Trust. In that case, you may not submit a new Letter of Intent until a full year after you’ve received your final grant payment from the award. (Example: You receive your last award from The Dana Brown Charitable Trust in the 2024 Spring Grant cycle. You may not submit another Letter of Intent until the 2025 Spring Grant cycle.
