Application Process
Preliminary Inquiries
The Society strongly recommends that prospective applicants contact the
Executive Director prior to submitting an application to discuss the project
and to determine eligibility. The Executive Director visits many
seminaries each fall, or is easily reached by e-mail at office@ees1862.org or
by phone at 703-807-1862. It is recommended that preliminary inquiries
include a brief description of the project and an estimated budget for
it.
The Application
Applications must be submitted as an e-mail attachment
to office@ees1862.org, and a hard copy must be mailed,
including the signature of the Dean of the applicant’s
seminary. The application must also be approved and signed
by the Rector or supervisor where the project will take place. Applications
must be e-mailed and postmarked by the deadline.
References
The name and phone number of a member of the faculty or administration
at the applicant’s seminary who will serve as a reference is required,
as is the name and address of the Bishop of the applicant’s diocese. Bishops
are notified of the application and that an award has been made.
Disbursement
Grants are paid in installments
according to the approved grant budget. Normally,
there is an initial payment of 40% of the total; 30% is paid upon receipt of
a mid-grant report; and 30% upon receipt of a final report and accounting of
expenditures. Grantees are asked to commit to a reporting schedule prior
to the initial disbursement. An accounting of funds spent, with receipts
for all expenditures over $500 is also required.
