helped families. When someone came to her store and couldn't afford to feed their family, Mrs. Barnes would provide food at
no cost. If someone came to her in need of a place to sleep, she provided shelter for them. If you needed someone to talk to, her ears were always open. Mrs. Barnes was a loving kind woman
with a heart the size of the world. Geographic Affiliation: • The honorary designation request is for Grand Blvd. because this is

Your approved grant amount for Year 1 can be found online using the Grantee Award List.
The BOOST funding recommendations are based on your application’s overall percentile score in comparison to all other applicants on each required element of the application and also considered your organization’s dosage of programming. Each application was fully read and scored by 5 qualified readers. More information on this process can be found in the Application Scoring & Rubric section of the BOOST FAQ document and the BOOST Grants Request for Proposals on the GSAN website. All funded organizations must be prepared to comply with all GaDOE Conflict of Interest and Disclosure Policies, all GaDOE Program Specific Assurances, and all requirements and expectations of the BOOST Grants Request for Proposals. In addition, before accepting BOOST funding, organizations should self-assess and affirm their capacity to:
carry out their programming within available financial resources, o Note:Yourgrantawardmaybelessthanyourequested–consider

attend and engage in required training and technical support with GSAN, collect any required data and outcome measures as described in the RFP, participate in any reasonable program evaluation efforts, utilize 3 months of working capital, if necessary, to begin programming while
trainings are conducted and budgets finalized and reviewed (GaDOE anticipates processing reimbursements monthly thereafter).
If you are unsure of your organization’s ability to meet the requirements of the BOOST program, if you have questions regarding the requirements, or if you wish to
