The Peoria Diamond Club Grants Program provides awards, contributions and grants in various amounts to assist youth in developing educational, athletic, therapeutic and fine art goals through sponsored or directed activities or defined projects that are within the PDC’s mission and stated areas of interest. Please note, only local organizations seeking assistance for a youth based program will be considered for grant funding.
Purpose:
The Peoria Diamond Club Grants Program provides awards, contributions and grants in various amounts to assist local youth through sponsored or directed activities.
Individual Projects: To support the training, development and/or attendance of a youth for the purpose of educational, cultural, or athletic event participation.
Organizations, Teams, and Group Projects: Grants may be awarded for the development/expansion of new or existing activities. Groups that are non-profit or charitable organizations, schools working to improved education, development and quality of life, or organized athletic teams participating in sanctioned athletic events are all examples of potential grant recipients.
Use of Grants:
The Diamond Club’s Grants are to be applied toward the direct cost of the specific project, program, event, activity, etc. being proposed, as identified in line‐item budget submitted with the request. Generally, grants may be used to support the following items:
Grant funds may NOT be used for the following purposes:
Grants Eligibility:
Grants will be made to local organizations with appropriate 501(c) (3) or 509(a) tax status as specified under a letter issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Grants to individuals or teams will be made on a need basis. While not excluded from applying for a grant, organizations with large annual operating budgets will be expected to make a stronger case for such contribution. Also, the use of an unrelated private‐sector organization with appropriate tax status as a fiscal agent for a program developed by and for a not‐qualifying organization is unacceptable. The same applies to grants for individuals.
Multiple grant requests from the same organization in the same review cycle are discouraged. An organization whose grant request was not funded cannot resubmit the same request for at least twelve (12) months.
Selection Criteria:
Selection of beneficiaries will be based on a number of factors, including but not limited to:
