The master grid will reflect the percent of the vote and the amount the organization will receive. The

for funding or donations will be considered by the UMW Board. The request should meet the following criteria:

representative will be invited to the board meeting in case additional information is needed to support the request.
The board will vote on the request and the president will advise the requester of the outcome after the meeting.
Requests for Scholarship Funds: Scholarship funds are available for women to request for activities and
educational events that support mission and/or the welfare of women and/or children. Scholarship requests should
be e-mailed to the UMW President. The request will be submitted directly to the UMW President. The president
will present request to the board for a vote. The president will advise the applicant for the board vote.
