the  m p w c Foundation,  inc.  

We require that each prospective grantee submit each year, with its annual input, a certification letter, submitted by BOTH email AND on paper (with inked signatures on the paper).   Use the below SOLELY as a PRELIMINARY form (which is SOLELY for your instructional use in understanding what we need as well as containing URL LINKS to the underlying detailed instructions for your use). Later, a FINAL FORM (to be used for you to copy and edit and then use in the reproducing of the FINAL COPY for you to submit to us) can be found at the "certification" (the very last. bottom of the page, of the template-requirements shown on the due Jan 31st webpage)  And, for identification purposes, please use our terminology (as described at Point B2-5 on ongoing requirements webpage) for the subject-names you give to any documents that you send us as emails AND/or attachments to any emails.  Each year (just prior to January 31), submit one email (see due Jan 31st) listing all of your attachments that are due at that time, with an attachment with your complete one-page comparative financial statement with notes PLUS other separate attachment(s) such as a copy of the paper certification letter and all other attachments and information required by the certification letter (with everything referenced and coded with a specific filename referenced to it, point by point) (this latter description of attachments is described further on our Checklist (summary) and on our templates webpages (each of which describes and more often offers a FORM that you should use, as described above). 

In observing the above requirements, you might also consider the certification letter as a "control" over what you should be submitting which both of us can and should compare to what you are submitting.   However, we have also provided a checklist (summary) of our requirements for each year that should also be helpful to you.

The below, therefore, basically constitutes INSTRUCTIONS for the annual certification letter to the MPWCF and it should read as it appears on the due Jan 31st webpage (however, please use each LINK below to obtain further explanation/definitions).  Remember, do NOT use the below letter to send it to us.  Instead, USE the CERTIFICATION (see the template) at the very bottom of the due Jan 31st webpage

And now, this one last "helper" for our grantees.  The very most important webpages (that should be read EVERY year by EVERY grantee) are defined and designated with a "(C)" on our site map page.  To aid  you in referring back and forth between this checklist page and each of those pages, we include below a table of links between each of these pages.  The links are listed (more or less, but mostly) in the order of their "completion by you (and necessity)" basis.
