How to make a nonprofit nomination

8 of 10

Is your nomination not in the directory?

Sometimes newer nonprofits, fiscally sponsored projects and federally recognized tribes aren’t yet in the Grapevine directory. That’s doesn’t mean they can’t be nominated!

Simply fill out this form so the Grapevine Accounting team can review and approve it. Once approved, our Accounting team will notify the member that it's added and ready for nomination.

Here’s the information you’ll be prompted for in above the form:

  • First, tell us the email where we should contact you?
  • What is the name of the group where you are nominating a nonprofit?
  • Provide the name and EIN of the nonprofit
  • What is the nonprofit's email address?
  • Nonprofit website link?
  • Nonprofit Social media profile links?
  • What is the nonprofit's Mission or Organizational Overview?
  • Please upload the nonprofit's logo if you have it
