The Foundation conducts diligence on potential grant recipients. The top teams submit proposals, which entails a detailed timeline, milestones, their approach to tracking our KPIs, and a detailed budget. We select the team that best meets the defined criteria.

The selected grantee works with our Grants Lead to set expectations on process, success metrics, and community resources. We KYC all grantees in this phase. Once the contract is signed, we are ready to communicate externally.

$250K+ initiatives and beyond are announced to the public via the Foundation’s channels including our website, blog and social media. We continue to provide the grantees marketing support throughout the lifetime of each initiative.

Grantees meet regularly with the UF team throughout the duration of their work. This includes monthly milestone check-in calls and a quarterly KPI review.
