Additional financial information:
The following answers should be submitted in narrative form. Please answer ALL of
the following questions directly on this sheet:
= Ofyour organizational budget, how much is for death penalty-related work?
100% of our budget is for death penalty work.
= How much did you receive from FADP-affiliated foundations for death penalty-related
work in 2013? In 2014? Please use the Grants Committed Chart to list the foundations
and the respective amounts. (Note: If you were awarded multi-year grants from FADP-
affiliated foundations prior to 2013 that included payouts or carried into 2013 or 2014,
please note this and include the 2013and 2014 amounts of those grants in your figures
for each year.)
We received no funding from FADP-affiliated foundations for death penalty-
related work in 2013 or 2014.
How much are you seeking from Themis Fund (formerly FADP) -affiliated foundations
for death penalty related work for the remainder of 2014? For 2015 work? If this
amount represents an increase from the prior year, is that because (a) you hope to
expand your death penalty-related work? (b) the increase is a replacement for other
grants/donations that you no longer expect to receive? Or (c) some other reason. Please
explain.
We are seeking $30,000 in funding from Themis Fund-affiliated foundations for
the hire of a full-time Executive Director and for death penalty-related work for
the remainder of 2014 and through October, 2015. This is the same amount we
sought from FADP-affiliated foundations last year.
= How much of your total budget do you receive from non-FADP/Themis Fund related
sources? (Please list funding sources of $10,000 or more).
100% of our total current budget is from non-FADP related sources, none of
which are $10,000 or more.
= When do you anticipate needing this funding? Please provide relevant information in
terms of both notification and cash flow. (NOTE: while notification for all LOIs is
planned for late September, if you plan on needing funding prior to November, please
indicate this in a cover note with your LOI. While we can provide no assurances at this
time that funding will be available for any specific organization nor on any timeline, if
we are alerted to pressing needs we might be able to respond in a more timely manner.
We ici ding this funding by ber 1, 2013.
