Grants
The Eastern Shawnee Tribe’s Grants Department is dedicated to researching and applying for federal, state, and foundation grants in order to benefit the tribe and tribal community.
Selecting particular grants is based upon several factors including, but not limited to, the Strategic Plan, community needs assessments, long-term plans, visionary goals, availability of funding opportunities, and requests to the Grant Review Committee (GRC).
Grants often serve the citizens within a 50-mile radius of tribal headquarters; however, it is our desire to serve and positively impact all tribal citizens across the United States.
Grants Review Committee
This committee is comprised of the Chief, Tribal Administrator, Grants Director, Accounting Director, and Grant Coordinator.
The GRC meets on a monthly basis with key staff of current, funded projects to ensure all ESTO grants are successfully fulfilling grant requirements, activities, objectives, goals of each grant, and how it will affect long-term planning.
The GRC also meets with Department Directors, as needed, to approve grant requests for submission.
