Step 3 Check Your Work

Every line item is something the project truly needs, not just wants. * We checked whether our sponsoring organization can provide anything in kind (space, tools, volunteers). * Our Grant Amount Requested falls between $500 and $1,000. * We left a small buffer for price changes, without going over the award range. * Our budget matches the activities described in our project plan. *

A clear, realistic budget is one of the strongest parts of an application.
