Colorado Lions Foundation Standard Grant

Fact (page-stated): Standard Grants are the most common type of grant the Foundation awards. They provide matching funds for humanitarian projects, and generally provide capital funding for equipment and infrastructure needs. Fact: projects 'must serve the people and must be beyond the scope of traditional club fundraising activities.' Fact: typical projects named are the Colorado Lions Camp, hospices, blind and disabled centers, and eye clinics. Inference: consistent with Lions' historic focus, sight/vision and disability services are favored. Assumption (page does not state) — FLAGGED: Lions foundations commonly require a sponsoring local Lions Club, and the phrase 'beyond the scope of traditional club fundraising activities' hints at club involvement, but the page does not state whether a sponsoring club is required, nor any dollar range, matching ratio or deadline. Verify eligibility with the Foundation before applying.
