Subject: FW: New 2010 VITA Grant Conference Call Scheduled on June 2,
2009 

 

Hello everyone,

 

We are extremely excited to offer the VITA Grant opportunity for a
second year!   The 2010 VITA Grant application open season will launch
on Monday, June 1, 2009 and will close on July 17, 2009. 

 

On June 2, 2009,  SPEC Grant Program Office (GPO) will host 2 conference
calls with SPEC partners to cover changes for 2010 and to address
questions/concerns.   The east coast call is scheduled first at 10:00
a.m. EST and the second call is scheduled at 1:00 p.m. to accommodate
the west coast.  The conference call number and participant code will
post to irs.gov (keyword search - VITA Grant).   

 

Publication 4671, VITA Grant Program Overview and Application Package
has been revised based on both internal and external feedback.  This
publication  provides a comprehensive overview of the VITA program, as
well as details about the VITA Grant application process.  Please take
time to review the attached Power Point and the revised Publication 4671
available online June 1, 2009. 

 

As a courtesy, a copy of the Publication 4671 will be direct-shipped to
all 2009 VITA Grant applicant organizations that applied to the program
last year.  Others may secure a copy via Grants.gov (keyword search -
VITA) and IRS.gov (keyword search - VITA Grant).  SPEC territory offices
will also receive a shipment of Publication 4680, VITA Grant Program
tri-fold brochure (attached).

 

Please help us spread the 2010 VITA Grant news to other interested
individuals and organizations by forwarding this email or posting onto
your website.   We anticipate a large number of callers and there are
limited phone ports available, please share a connection at each
location.  

 

For more details about the call, please access Grants.gov (keyword
search - VITA) and IRS.gov (keyword search - VITA Grant).  If you have
questions after the call you may contact the GPO by e-mail at 
grant.program.office at irs.gov
<BLOCKED::blocked::mailto:grant.program.office at irs.gov> .  Remember, the
grant application period will end on July 17, 2009.  So, please apply
early!  Thanks.
