PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY TO
ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THE REQUIREMENTS FOR
DONATION APPLICATIONS
Instructions for Completing Application
Those seeking donations for community projects or our assistance with fundraising programs must
complete this application in its entirety. Any donation application that is submitted without
completing this application in its entirety will not be considered.
1. To assist us in our efforts to evaluate each request fairly and completely, we ask that you
submit applications for donations a minimum of two months ahead of the time that the
donation is needed in order for the Tribal Council to review the application and make a
determination. If your organization has a timeline they need to operate by please plan
accordingly as we do not do rush processing.
2. Ensure that the name of the person or organization, mailing address, contact phone number
and e-mail address are completely filled out. Some questions may not apply to your
organization or project, but please answer all questions that do apply.
3. Confirm that all of your contact information is correct in the event that we need to contact
you.
4. Specify exactly what donation amount and/or goods you are requesting. Any applications
that do not have this information completed will not be considered.
Review of Application
The Tribal Council will review your application and base their decision solely on the information
you give us. Applicants may provide additional information or attachments if they are relevant to
their funding request; but realize that a concise statement of the project methods and goals will help
us best evaluate your application. Only send copies of your materials as we will not return any of the
materials we receive with the donation application.
Granted Donations
A valid e-mail address is required on this application. You will be contacted via e-mail to notify you
that your donation request has been granted. Due to the volume of donation request’s the Tribe
receives we will only notify you should your donation be approved. If you do not receive an e-
mail from us during the timeline outlined above, then your donation request has not been
granted and no further action by our office will be taken.
Additional Information
Donation applications are approved and dispersed at the discretion of the Tribal Council. Please be
advised that the Tribe receives numerous requests for funding each month and they try to provide
financial assistance to a variety of organizations which enrich our local communities, however they
cannot fund every request. Donations are not guaranteed to be granted once an application has been
submitted even if you have received a donation from the Tribe in the past. Once the Tribal Council
has made their decision it is final. Tribal staff are not aware of the reasons that the Tribal Council
may decline a donation request. Any inquires as to why a request was not approved will not
receive a response.
