Instructions for the 2015/16 Core Funding Application GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS Please follow the instructions for completion of the Core Application for Funding. The Children's Services Councils and Advisory Committee and the United Ways of St. Lucie, Martin, and Indian River Counties support this core application for FY 2015/16. The application this year is in two electronic files. The file entitled 2015/16 Core Application is a Word file used for your program narrative description. You also have an Excel spreadsheet file named 2015/16 Budget Forms that contains the required fiscal forms. These files and an Instruction file are available at the funders' offices. If you use a printed version instead of the electronic, please double-check all of your calculations for accuracy. Be advised that the funders support this core application, however each funder may have different individual priorities and require different portions to be completed for that funder. Each funder may have specific penalties if required items are not included. Please carefully review the instructions for the funders to whom you are applying. Each funder requires an individualized application for each program. The use of core items in the narrative and fiscal sections should simplify application for the same program to several funders.
