QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS This section offers answers to frequently asked questions about the Foundation, grant application procedures, Foundation programs and grantmaking, and other issues related to the mission of Dakota Medical Foundation. How did Dakota Medical Foundation (DMF) get its start? I’ve heard good things about your Foundation. How can I make a tax-deductible donation or provide dollars for a specific health purpose? What types of grantmaking programs does the Foundation have? Do you give grants to individuals? Who is eligible for funding? What is your service area? Are there any projects that will not be considered for funding?* Does the Foundation fund equipment or technology? Do you fund multi-year grants? How do I apply for a responsive grant? Process – Letter of Intent: 1. Potential applicants may call the Foundation to discuss their proposed project or complete the eligibility questionnaire. If the proposed project fits within the Foundation's mission and current interests, the applicant will be invited to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) by the submission deadline (Grant Round Schedule). 2. Applicants will be notified of the status of their proposal approximately 30 days after submission. 3. Letters of Intent that best meet the Foundation's mission and current interests proceed to the grant application stage. Who should I contact about applying for a grant? What are the Letter of Intent deadlines? How long does it take to get a grant? How are grant applications selected? If I get a grant, what else will I have to do?
