Grants from donor advised funds must be documented with an appropriate donor suggestion form with amounts and purposes of grants listed. grants from donor designated funds, field of interest funds, scholarship funds and unrestricted funds must also have the appropriate documentation supported by their fund agreements or grant requests. scholarship funds and unrestricted fund grants are reviewed by the appropriate committees and recommended for approval by the board. grant letters are sent with the grant checks to the grantee with amounts and purposes clearly listed. we verify that each grantee is a qualified charity as recognized by the internal revenue service and whether or not the grant requires additional expenditure responsibility procedures depending on their public charity status under section 509(a) of the irs code. the board of directors approves all grants after all due diligence is performed and verified. we notify grantees that if the funds cannot be used for the intended purpose that the grant must be returned. if it is determined that a grantee is not using the funds as intended, the grantee is contacted and asked to return the funds.
