Review
The Community Grant Review Board will review each individual application according to a predetermined set of criteria. That criteria includes:

• Whether the application provides sufficient information.
• Whether that application has recently received a community grant.
• Whether the organization has formally supported the application through a vote taken at one of their meetings.
• How many members of the applicant organization live in Ocoee.
• How many clients of the applicant organization live in Ocoee.
• What other fundraising efforts has the organization used besides this grant process to gain funding for this purpose?
• Whether the organization volunteers in the community on a regular basis, or whether they are willing to volunteer their time outside of that which is dedicated to benefit their own organization.
• What accomplishments their organization has made over the past 24 months.
• The merits of the specific purpose of the grant in so far as it is important to the Ocoee community as a whole versus the benefits to the organization or individual members or clients of the organization.
