Preliminary Project Proposal
The Preliminary Project Proposal is closed for 2010. Please check back in 2011 for new grant cycle deadlines related to our Healthy Active Communities and Health of Vulnerable Populations focus areas.
Preliminary Project Proposal
Submission of a Preliminary Project Proposal is the first required step for any organization seeking to apply for a grant from the BCBSNC Foundation.
The Proposal is the same for both the Health of Vulnerable Populations and the Healthy Active Communities focus areas, including for equipment-only requests.
After review of the Preliminary Project Proposal, you will be notified via email whether or not your organization has been invited to submit a full grant application. Please note that we are unable to accept grant applications that have not gone through the Preliminary Project Proposal process. However, equipment-only requests are an exception and will not be asked to complete the second step.
The Preliminary Project Proposal is closed for 2010. No further submissions will be accepted.
