Due to the volume of materials received, please do not send attachments to your letter of interest; we will request additional information as needed.
Recipients of all grants are requested to submit a follow-up letter to the Equipoise Fund within 30 days of expending the funds, advising us as to how the funds were used and describing the impact on your organization, community and/or the state of Wyoming.
The Equipoise Fund does not provide scholarship assistance to individuals because we are a nonprofit, private operating fund, and we are guided by IRS regulations that preclude us from providing assistance to individuals.
Please see our Grants Resources for more information.
