Final Reporting

Grant Reporting

FINAL REPORTS FOR THE GENERAL GRANT CYCLES MUST BE SUBMITTED THROUGH WYCF’S ONLINE GRANT SYSTEM.

Final Report

Unless otherwise stated in the award letter, all grant recipients must turn in a final report. We are happy to accept final reports that have been prepared for other funding organizations or agencies so long as the report covers the WYCF grant period, the narrative is an appropriate description of the scope of work for which you used the WYCF grant funding, and the financials meet the requirements listed in the instructions.

Submit your final report for General Operating and Project Grants here.

Announcement of Grant

WYCF asks that grantees share news of their grant award on social media. Any org receiving funds of over $10,000 is also asked to share news of their award via a press release. You can access our press release template here.

Your final report is due within one year from the date your organization receives its award letter and should be submitted here. Please note that in order to be eligible to reapply for funds through WYCF, previous grants must be closed out, which may mean submitting a final report in less than 12 months.
