Salesforce Grant Portal
Each FAFCC member organization is assigned one Project Liaison with access to the portal. Returning grantees will use their existing login credentials. If you need to designate a new Project Liaison or are a new grantseeker, please contact kendall@fafcc.org for instructions on setting up your Salesforce access.
Award letters will be emailed to selected awardees and a Grant Agreement must be signed and submitted through DropBox Sign. A PDF copy of the agreement is available for review purposes (coming soon).

FAFCC will collect progress updates from grantees throughout the grant cycle. All reporting will be done within the Salesforce Grant Portal and each clinic has one designated Project Liaison with access. (If you need to designate a new Project Liaison or require assistance with your log-in, please contact kendall@fafcc.org).

   Expenditure Documentation

Expenditure documentation is required with the submission of all Narrative Report and should include expenses for each awarded budget categories (invoices, pay stubs, receipts, Quickbooks export, etc.).

   Annual Valuation Report

FAFCC is required to provide the Department of Health with a patient services report that documents the number of clients served, the types of services provided, and the number of appointments per client. This information will be collected as part of the Annual Valuation Report, which will also provide a monetary value to the services provided at your organization. Grantees are required to complete this report once at the end of the grant cycle for the entire period of support (July 1 to June 30). 

The Annual Valuation Report is due Tuesday, July 15, 2025 and is available within Salesforce. Attend the Final Reporting Webinar to learn more.

   Report Scoring

Each Narrative Report will be scored on a 30-point scale. The Patient Services and Annual Valuation Report will be worth an additional 10 points, for a total of 100 potential points for the grant cycle. This aggregate score will guide funding decisions for the next grant cycle.
