WEEKLY HAYDAY HOT TAKE FROM THE HAYDAY DUO! Curious what your grant calendar is going to look like in Federal Fiscal Year 2025 (October 1, 2024 – September 30, 2025)? You don’t have to wait until grant programs are released in grants.gov. As one example, the House Appropriations Committee released a draft of the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025. You can review the full text HERE. Other department appropriations have been drafted as well. Appropriation Bills haven’t been approved yet, so changes are possible, likely even. But if your agency depends on a certain program year after year, now is a good time to see how much funding is designated to that program. Some programs have been slashed and others eliminated entirely, in this early draft. And because the 2025 Appropriation Bills are still in draft form (not passed by the House of Representatives or Senate yet), there is still time to call your elected officials to let them know how reductions in funding will affect the communities they are elected to serve. The more you know about what federal funding is, and isn’t, in the proposed budget, the better prepared your agency is to find alternative sources of funding, if needed. The better-informed grant professionals are, the better we can work to ensure continued programming takes place where it is needed most. ********************************************************************************* Hungry for more?
