How to Apply
Please note that the Summerlee Foundation is no longer accepting Letters of Interest (LOI) or grant applications by mail or email. We are transitioning to a new and convenient online application and grants management system designed to assist you in submitting an LOI and a full proposal. We are using a system called Foundant, and you will access the Summerlee Foundation Grant Portal by clicking here.
Contact the Program Director
- Please review the Grant Guidelines before beginning the application process.
- Prior to submitting a proposal, grant seekers must contact the Program Director – Gary N. Smith for Texas History by email to schedule a discussion of the proposed project. This discussion must take place at least 30 days before the LOI deadline.
Create a Letter of Inquiry And, If Invited, A Full Proposal
- After discussing your proposal with the Program Director, and receiving approval to proceed, click here to be taken to the Summerlee Foundation On-Line Grant Application Portal at Foundant.
- Log in and/or create a new account.
- Follow instructions for completing the LOI and when completed, click “submit.”
- Please be aware of the deadline for submission, as the application process will automatically close at the deadline.
- You will receive an email advising you that we have your LOI. IF you do not receive a confirming email, please contact us.
- You will be notified in a few weeks as to the status of your LOI. If accepted, you will then be invited by email to return to the Grant Application Portal to complete a full application.
