General Operating Support

Grant Requests

General Operating Support applicants do not make specific funding requests. Organizations supported through this grant category receive:

  • Base Awards that represent a percentage of an organization's three-year average contributed income (all sources) and earned income (Phoenix sources only); and
  • Merit Awards determined by the ranking an organization receives in the panel review.

The percentage used to calculate the Base Award is directly related to an organization's budget size. The budget size is determined by a three-year average of the organization's contributed and earned income budget figures. The three-year average is calculated using the audited or reviewed financial statements from the two most recent completed fiscal years, and the financial information submitted in the "Current Year Estimate" column of the Three-Year Budget.

Due to limited availability of funds, new organizations admitted to the General Operating Support grant category may initially receive partial awards. Increases in future years will depend upon available dollars and cannot be guaranteed.

 

Off-Year Application Process

The Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture has Implemented an Off-Year Application process for organizations that currently receive funding through the General Operating Support grant category. Every other year, these organizations will submit an abbreviated application (see Off-Year Application below). The purpose of the Off-Year Application is to simplify the application process and to give funded organizations an opportunity to focus their resources and efforts on developing and pursuing new funding opportunities.

Off-Year Applications will not be reviewed by a grant review panel. Prior-year merit scores will be used to calculate the Merit Award. The Base Award will be calculated using the organization's budget size, a three-year average of the organization's earned (Phoenix only) and contributed income.

Off-Year Applicants For Fiscal Year 2008-2009:

  • Arizona Jewish Theatre Company
  • Black Theatre Troupe
  • Free Arts of Arizona
  • Great Arizona Puppet Theater
  • Phoenix Bach Choir
  • Phoenix Boys Choir
  • Rosie's House: A Music Academy for Children
  • Valley Youth Theater
