FY 2010 Technical Assistance/Match Funds

The Children’s Board of Hillsborough County is accepting applications to the Technical Assistance and Match Funds effective January 15, 2010.  These funds are available to not-for-profit service providers, community based organizations and governmental entities serving children and families in Hillsborough County.  All funds are one time and non-recurring.

Technical Assistance Funds are intended to assist organizations build their capacity through strategic activities to strengthen their ability to operate effectively over the long term.  Appropriate capacity building activities should focus on improving internal infrastructure in the areas of Governance, Management, Finance and Fund Development.  

Technical Assistance grants are not designed for salaries, direct service, grant writers, construction or renovations, or cost related to start up (program or agency).

$10,000 is the maximum amount considered per request.  In addition, requests for up to $1,000 per agency to cover the cost of registration for conference and training events will be considered.   Travel, lodging or other incidental expenses are no longer eligible expenses.  

The purpose of this fund is to leverage Children’s Board resources to access dollars from outside Hillsborough County such as state, federal and national foundations.  Limited matching funds are available to non-profit service providers, community based organizations and governmental entities serving children pre-natal to 18 and their families in Hillsborough County and support the CBHC’s strategic focus. 

Contact our Resource Development Team to discuss match opportunities as early in the process as possible.  If appropriate, the CBHC will provide a letter of support to submit with your grant proposal.  A letter of support from the CBHC does not commit funds to a project but may include an invitation to submit a competitive application to this fund.  Contact the Resource Development Team for more information.
