Our application process

The steps

You must submit a Letter of Interest (LOI) and a budget. Mama Cash does not accept unsolicited full proposals. LOIs and budgets are accepted and reviewed year round.
We will review your LOI and budget and get back to you, usually within three weeks.
If we decide not to go forward with your request, we will let you know why.
If we want to move forward, we will contact you to discuss your request.
If we decide to move forward after our discussions, you will be invited to submit a full proposal.
After you submit your full proposal, final decisions take approximately four weeks. The entire application process from start to finish takes approximately four months.
