  How Posts May Obtain a Grant for a Capital Project

  

  American Legion Posts are eligible to submit a grant application for capital projects involving such things as kitchen, community room and HVAC under the Veterans’ Nonprofit Capital Program (VNCP).

  Applications for VNCP Round 2 are due April 19, 2024.

  Applicants should be sure to:

  Obtain a prequalified State Financial System (SFS) Prequalification Application (or maintain the prequalification status in SFS – as a reminder the Grants Management System converted all prequalified Grants Gateway Document Vaults to SFS in January 2024).  Please refer to the Grants Management website (https://grantsmanagement.ny.gov/get-prequalified)  and the Questions and Answers noted below for additional details.

  NOTE:  It is highly recommended that you start the prequalification process no later than March 31 as it may take a significant amount of time to get through the process.
