Do I need a project partner to apply?
Partnerships aren’t required, but preference will be given to projects that include partnerships and relationship-building within the community. When listing partners on the application, they must be from outside of the applying organization and each partner’s roles and responsibilities in the project should be clearly stated. Letters of support from project partners should be included with the application.
For example, if a school is listing their local municipality as a partner, it would be ideal to have a letter of support from the municipality declaring their support for the project.
How detailed should my application be?
Application to the Spirit of Healthy Kids Regional Program is a competitive process. When reviewing your application, the screening committee should be able to easily understand the goals of the project and the plans that will be put in place to achieve them. The more details included in your application, the better. Ensure that the project budget is clear and includes all costs that will be associated with the project activities.
I missed the application deadline. Can I still apply?
To be fair to all applicants, we cannot accept applications after the deadline (October 31, 2019). If you missed the deadline, we encourage you to apply for the program next year, or to complete the challenge and submit to win a $500 draw prize.
