Step 1: The Drafting Phase

Use this Word document to create a draft of your application. This is helpful in developing your project before submitting the final version through the online portal.

Step 2: Discussion and Feedback

Once the draft application is complete, send it to our project coordinator – projects@safconcordia.ca – for feedback. They will provide suggestions based on our criteria so that your application has the highest chances of being approved by the Board of Directors.

Draft applications should be sent to the project coordinator on the first week of every month to allow enough time for reviewing. This leaves ample time for you to edit based on the feedback and before submitting your final application (Step 3).

Step 3: Online Submission

Applications are reviewed once per month by our Board of Directors. The deadline for applications is the 15th of every month. Using the draft that has been refined using feedback from the project coordinator, simply copy and paste all information into the required fields, attach all necessary additional documentation (photos, letters of recommendation, CVs, etc.) and press submit!

Step 4: Funding decision

The Board of Directors will meet once per month following the submission deadline to review, discuss, and allocate funding for all received applications. Once a decision on a project is reached, a notification will be sent to applicants by the SAF CEO.
