Grant Management Checklist

• Carefully read your grant program agreement and contact us with questions.

• Save a copy of the signed grant agreement for your records.

• Review and, if applicable, sign the Federal Labor Standards for Professional Performers form and return it to Oreogn Humanities with the signed program agreement.

  • Federal Labor Standards (see grant agreement for details) and Federal Labor Standards for Professional Performers and Related Professional Personnel

• Notify state and federal legislators in writing that your program received a grant from Oregon Humanities for the funded programming and, if possible, invite them to the event. Retain electronic copies of the letters to submit with the grant’s final narrative report. 

  • Sample Letter to Legislators. Use this as a template to notify state and federal legislators in writing that your program received a grant from us.

• Duplicate and distribute program donation record forms as applicable. These documents are important if a significant portion of your grant match is in-kind support. These are for your organizational and grant management records and may be requested during an audit. 

  • Program Donation Record for Public Program Grant Volunteer Services and Facilities, Equipment, and Resources Form. 

• Use the Oregon Humanities logo in public relations materials and specify in all written, print, or electronic promotional and informational materials produced in support of the grant that the program is funded by a grant from Oregon Humanities as follows: “This program was made possible in part by a grant from Oregon Humanities, a statewide nonprofit organization and an independent affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities, which funds Oregon Humanities’ grant program.  For fifty years, Oregon Humanities has offered programs and publications that help Oregonians connect, reflect, and learn from one another.” 

  • Oregon Humanities Logo. Additional formats may be found here. 

• Complete the online event confirmation form and submit to Oregon Humanities at least four weeks prior to the start of each grant funded event, or ASAP, depending on your grant period. This allows us to help get the word out about your event and possibly attend.

  • Event Form
