 Statement of Need: issue to be addressed, supported by data

 Goals and Objectives: specific goals and their desired outcomes

 Evaluation: measuring achievement of your goals

 Other Funding: other current or projected sources of revenue

 Information: mission statement, board of directors, history and track record,

community/population served

 Agency and Project Budgets: statement of project costs, how much needed, how
