Application Procedure

Online Proposal Submission Instructions

Applications are accepted during two windows, however, an organization may only apply once per year.

Prior to submitting a proposal through the Fuller Foundation’s online grants system, applicants need to complete a one-time registration. You will need to supply your contact information and create a password to log in to the system. The foundation prefers that the primary contact person complete the registration. If you have not yet submitted an online application through the GMA Foundations portal, you may register at any time.

After you log in, enter the access code “fuller” in the box labeled “Access Code.” Then click the “Fuller Foundation” apply button to start your new application.  Be sure to keep the password you will create where you or others in your organization can find it again for future use. If you have previously registered and submitted an online application to any GMA-affiliated foundation, use the same username and password – but be sure to enter the access code, “fuller” ” for this submission.

Important:
If you want to exit your application before it is complete, click on “Save as Draft” at the bottom of the screen. You can then come back later and continue to work on your application by signing in with your password and clicking “edit” your draft. There is also a “print packet” button if you wish to create a printable document for internal review. When your application is complete click the “submit” button. A new screen will then appear confirming receipt of your application.

All application materials must be received by midnight on the day of the deadline – however, technical support is only available until 4pm.

For the May meeting, application materials are accepted December 1 – midnight on January 15th.

For the October meeting, application materials are accepted May 1st – midnight on June 15th.

Should you require assistance with the online proposal submission, please contact Sarah Kain at kfyrberg@gmafoundations.com. All materials for the proposal must be attached to the online submission; please do not send any items separately by email or mail.
