Project Partners
Upload your partner commitment and project support letters here.
Applicants that include contributing partners must clearly describe the relationship between the applicant and the "partner(s)". Partner organizations from disadvantaged communities must be full partners in the project. Provide the names of partner organizations, describe their involvement and contributions to the project, and qualifications of the organization and personnel as they relate to their roles in project implementation.
NOTE: If you are requesting a match waiver for working in a disadvantaged community that is not your own community, you MUST include a partner organization from the disadvantaged community.
A letter of commitment/support is required from all contributing or advocating partners. Support/Commitment Letters are to be signed by an authorized representative of the entity and limited to 1 page.
You may include support letters from government officials (i.e. a Mayor or State Forester) and other organization leaders who are dedicated to supporting or advocating for your proposal as it relates to their area of oversight or management. An example might be a support letter from a city Mayor or city/county manager stating their approval or strong desire and community need for the implementation of your proposal.
The web-form will prompt you for each partners name, contact information, their project involvement, as well as a letter of support or commitment from the partner. The partner's support/commitment letter should describe their advocacy, project role, and/or contributions to the project.
Partner/support letters should be saved as an Adobe PDF document before uploading using the web-form.
