Congratulations! The Program Services Committee has re\iewed all applicants forthe 2002 grant cycle. We believe that yours is a program that will align with themission of the March of Dimes, and we are pleased to inform you that your proposalfor the Folic Acid Outreach Project will be funded for $23,000.00.

While the Program Services Committee (PSC) thinks this is an excellent project, thecommittee decided to fund this project at a reduced level than what was proposed for.The committee was concerned about funding the part-time salary and also thoughtthe amount requested for purchasing vitamins could possibly be reduced therefore thegrant is being funded at $23,000.

In order for us to issue your check, we will require that the ~~rantee ~Agreement be filled out and returned to the March of Dimes as soon as possible. A "-

check for 50% of the amount will be issued upon receipt of the Grantee Agreement.The remaining 50% will be awarded upon the receipt of a 6-month progress report. Imust further remind you that in order to be eligible to receive March of Dimesfunding next year you will need to submit an update on the status of this project in sixmonths, and again in twelve months.
