The
USA Hockey Foundation's primary interest in grant making is to assist
USA Hockey, Inc., USA Hockey Affiliate Associations and charitable
organizations that promote ice hockey. The Foundation
annually allocates up to five percent of its net assets in support of
these requests. Any additional requests for grants beyond the five
percent level are reviewed annually. The deadline to apply for a grant
is March 1 of each year.
To apply for a grant from The USA Hockey Foundation:
1) Submit a brief letter of inquiry that contains a concise statement
of the need for funds (rather than a fully developed proposal) and
enough factual information to enable the Foundation to determine its
initial response. Please email the letter to sheilam@usahockey.org.
2) If it is determined from the initial letter that the program or
project meets the Foundation's interests and priorities, your
organization will be invited to apply for a grant. If selected to
apply, please submit one signed copy of the grant application, as well
as one copy each of the organization's IRS letter 501(c)(3), IRS form
990, three years of audited financial statements, and list of the board
of directors. 3) Send the application and supporting materials by March 1 to: sheilam@usahockey.org
