Funding Shortfalls* Matching Funds Percentage Verification of ln-kind Coniributions V.,fial dratrates lvr!l be nrade if iultdinq lor yotit reqLtesi 's rot available or tecorlllended'? The Kittitas County Historical Museum currently receives no rrronetary support for advertising beyond the allocated amount through the museum's annual budget and what is awarded through the Lodging Tax Grant process. The Museum's Board of Directors has dedicated an annual stipend of $2,500 to match the Lodging Tax grarrt fund request through its annual budget. While we have applied for grant funding for capital improvement and archival project specific funding in the past, the funding received was dedicated for those projects and not for advertising. We were not funded for additional awards for advertising nor were we successful in recent years in receiving other grant funding. ln 2019, we applied for but did not receive funding for capital improvement project funding through local, regional, and national grants in addiiion to grants specific to museum collections storage, archives nraintenance, collections cate, and historic preservation. Due to the COVID-19 situation in 2020 and 2A21, we were unable to pursue project-based grants in 2020 and found ourselves ineligible for funding for some grants in 2021 due to our size. scope, and scale. However. we anticipate applying for a rnajor capital improvement grant that will be dedicated funding and not appropriated until 2023 if successful. We ask for support from the Lodging Tax Grant to help accommodate all of the new ideas we would like to use to achieve success. lf not funded in full. we would adjust our plans to reflect the decreased budget, however, depending on the allocation, we may be unable to pursue any of the planned activities as we do not have the capacity to do video production, newsletters, or maintain our website with our limited staff and resources. This would effectively silence a great opportunity to engage with individuals from all across the westenl region of the United States who have expressed interest in our Museum. and our lecture series. while we have limiied capacity and ability until COVID-1 9 restrictions are lifted. 250t1 charaete. linlii 10a o//o liils iielil ,r/rll ituio iill ,riilh lh.i ir.rect percerloge llased qr yo|r inpLla io budgrl :ieittlar belo\,r. 9l Project Budget Overview Please complete budget for this projectlproposal. lf your agency operates independently of this prolect application it may not be necessary to submii the entire agency budget, You must submit a budget which specifically pedains to the projectlevent for which you are requesting funding and adheres to the basic budget format shown below.
