Note

Meeting the required criteria outlined in the RFP ensures your application will be reviewed for consideration of funding. However, satisfying the requirements outlined in the RFP does not guarantee your project will be funded. This is a competitive grant opportunity, and all application submissions are reviewed by a committee of Kansas shareholders who have expertise in economic development, community coalition building, and the early childhood system. The results of this review inform funding decisions made by the Kansas Children’s Cabinet and Trust Fund.
