<p class="MsoNormal">Michigan holds about 400K for grants of $5,000 to $25,000. We have a set application deadline and set grant contract period. Unless you are doing a quick grant to purchase something without expectations of programming or other outcome generating
activities, I would not do a rolling grant. You’ll end up explaining everything about the process over and over and those who apply towards the end of the funds will run out of time to do the programming.
