How to apply to Prog Holdings Foundation Inc
- How to Apply
-
The foundation says requests are submitted through its website or an internal process for consideration by its giving committee. The committee uses a scoring rubric covering the requested support, how it would help level the economic playing field, unmet needs, and opportunities for PROG-related individuals to volunteer. The foundation reports that it checks for conflicts of interest and that committee members with a conflict do not vote on the application. Once funding is awarded, it requests a 501(c)(3) letter, a Form W-9, and funds-transmission information. The filing states there are no award restrictions and no deadlines.
