Grant Extensions - Buena Vista County Community Foundation

The Foundation’s intend of funding a project is that the project will be completed within the following 12 months; however, the Foundation understands that from time to time projects run into challenges that require an extended period of time to complete. In these cases, the grantee should request an extension prior to the end of the initial 12-month period.

Keep in mind that by signing the grant agreement you are committing to the completion of the project within the 12-month grant timeline, any need to extend that timeline will need the grantee to file a grant extension request. All grant extension requests shall be filed prior to the end of the original 12-month grant timeline and as soon as it is known that the project will not be completed within the grant timeline provided.

More information on Grant Extensions can be found on our Frequently Asked Questions page.

All grant extension requests are to be completed and submitted on the form provided on our web page. The Grant Extension Request form is located lower on this page.
