Step 4.8

Appendices

Appendices contain information peripheral to your proposal, such as reprints of articles, definitions of terms, subcontract data, consortia agreements, tabular data, certifications, lists of board members and officers with titles, recent annual reports, organizational fiscal reports, organizational charts, resumes, past success stories, significant case histories, agency publication, publicity, and letters of support and commitment. Some funders will not circulate copies of appendices when transmitting proposals to reviewers. Nevertheless, the use of appendices is recommended, especially when page limits are imposed.

Your Appendices section should:

• Provide strong letters of support and commitment.
• Include assurances of cooperation in instances of inter-agency support.
• Include resumes for all key project personnel and consultants.
