Examples of Grant Applications

Good Example of a Prior Projects Summary:

FY 2000 NSBP grant (SB-2000-CA-2) was funded in the amount of $328,940 for detailed planning, design, construction and installation of Wayside Exhibits, Kiosks, Signs, Guidebook and Rest Areas along the Tioga/Big Oak Flat National Scenic Byway.  The Yosemite National Park is working to complete this project in coordination with the Inyo National Forest. 

This example is successful because it:

  • References the year, amount of funding, and project funded as well as the status of the project
  • Includes the specific NSBP project number
  • Supports the comment made in the Narrative/Project Summary section "In FY 2000 a grant was funded to plan, develop, and install wayside exhibits, signs, and brochures along the Yosemite Byway ($328,940).  There has been no further effort to enhance or promote the byway and there is no supporting byway organization" and underscores the need for a byway organization
