ABOUT QUESTER GRANTS
The International Questers award Grants to Quester Chapters involved in Preservation and Restoration projects at the local level in the even numbered years. Each year $2.50 from dues per member is allocated for Preservation and Restoration. In the odd year or the first year of the President's 2-year term, the President is allowed to allocate these funds to a project of her/his choice, approved by the International Board and voted upon by the Council Members. Any Preservation and Restoration donations or unused dues money from that year will be placed into the International Grants Fund. Preservation and Restoration donations and dues from the second year are also placed into the International Grants Fund. The money in this International Grants Fund is awarded to the winning applicants in the even numbered years at the spring International Questers Convention.
In order to apply for a grant you must read the Official Application Guidelines and the General Guidelines before you complete the application form.
