2010 NRA Foundation Online Application

Information from Ag Sponsored Programs

To access the 2010 NRA Foundation online grant application, click on the link on the OSU 4-H website. Click on General Grant Application. This will take you to a page where you will be asked to type in your email address and a password. You can then open the application and begin.

At the bottom of each page you will be given the option to save your application. By saving the application, you can close it out and return to it at a later time by logging in with your email address and password.

Once you have completed the application, email a copy of your application to for routing with the W-9 form. The W-9 form is one of the “required” attachments and it must be signed by the OSU Vice President for Research. I will complete and print the W-9 form. Once signed, I will email the W-9 form, and other required attachments as detailed in the Page 10 instructions below, back to you so the documents can be attached to your application.

After routing, each county will log back in to the saved NRA application website and will submit their own application to the NRA Foundation electronically.

At any point, you can contact me for assistance if you need it.

Please begin the online process as soon as possible in case you run into complications.

DEADLINES: 12/1/09: Email application to Ag Sponsored Programs for routing.

12/11/09: The signed W-9 form will be sent back to you with required attachments for you to attach to the online application.

12/31/09: All applications must be submitted electronically by the county to NRA
