How it makes and monitors grants (Schedule I, Part IV)
The foundation issues a grant agreement that states the stipulations for use of funds, when the report on use of funds is due, and how to request any revisions in the terms of the grant should the need arise. a recipient completes and signs the grant agreement and the document is returned to the foundation before funds are disbursed. when the check is sent, a grant report form, which requests information on detailed expenditures, programmatic benefits, and community impact, is included. report forms are sent to the foundation by the due date and are reviewed by staff to assess compliance with the terms of the grants. as appropriate, staff closes the grant or requests reimbursement of funds (in the case of ineligible uses) and provides summary information to the grants committee. for donor advised grants, the foundation issues a letter to the grant recipient organization that contains stipulations for use of the funds. this letter accompanies the check.
