These groups may apply for funding from Tier#1 each April. Tier#2 allows organizations that are not eligible for Tier#1 support to apply for funding of events that are not fund-raising in nature and do not generate more than $2,500 in proceeds after expenses. Tier#3 allows organizations that are not eligible for Tier #1 support to apply for funding of events that generate more than$2,500 in proceeds after expenses and are fund-raising in nature.
