KIVA Can Help You Take Advantage of Funding Available Through P.L. 111-5, American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA).
Do you have infrastructure or construction needs identified that could be funded by the ARRA? KIVA and its Partners are ready to assist you with:
· Matching your needs to grants that are available
· Improving your chances of writing a successful grant application
· Managing all phases of your projects: planning, architectural design and engineering, construction
· Meeting the tracking and reporting requirements of ARRA.
The timelines for the current round of funding are SHORT, with some grants closing as early as the first week in May, 2009. More funds are scheduled to be made available in the months to come – but your projects must be “shovel-ready”.
KIVA can help. Don’t delay, contact us today!
