As we mentioned in our first electronic newsletter, the Trust is utilizing the Internet as a communication tool and encouraging you to use the same tool. Perhaps the most exciting news on this front is that the Trust is now accepting preliminary proposal applications online, thereby simplifying the process for those seeking to communicate with the Trust and helping us to interact with our "customers" in a more efficient manner. We will, of course, continue to accept hard copy grant applications sent via mail or hand delivery but encourage you to try out this new process. Effective immediately, you can begin work on your next preliminary application, which is due January 14, 2005.

As always, we welcome your questions or ideas about this process or any other aspect of the Trust's work.
