PARA grants are awarded through two rounds of applications and are subject to the budget limits for the program established by the Directors at the Spring PARA meeting each year. Objective: Round 1 grants are for those clubs who commit to apply for a Kelly Brush Foundation (KBF) matching grant that same year, AND commit to apply to KBF for the combined amount of both the club’s funds and the amount requested from PARA.
Application Deadline: 6 PM on the 2nd-to-last Friday in May (e.g., 5/22/26) Name and email address of club contact. Amount of funds to be provided by the club. Match requested from PARA .
The amount the club intends to request from KBF ( I . e. , double the two amounts above) A quote from the vendor showing the equipment to be purchased at KBF pricing.

Incomplete applications will not be considered. Response Date: By June 3rd of each year. Additional Information: Round 1 awards are conditional on the successful award of a KBF grant that matches the combined total of both the club and PARA funds (not just matching the club funds).
Please note that clubs can only apply to KBF every other year. KBF's website states that "clubs are eligible to apply for KBF funding on a semi-annual basis. If your club received funding in 2025, your next opportunity to apply will be in spring 2027."
For clubs awarded PARA grants in Round 1, the netting Chair will provide the club with a letter stating that PARA will match the club's funds for the KBF application. KBF’s application deadline is usually mid- to late-June, and information about the KBF grant program and the application can be found at: https://kellybrushfoundation. org/skiracingsafety/grantprogram/ .
Objective: Round 2 grants do not require the club to apply to KBF, but clubs are required to complete a PARA Safety Grant Application. Application Deadline: 6 pm on September 30th Required Information: PARA Safety Net Grant application Submission: Send an email to the PARA Executive Committee with the completed PARA Safety Net Grant application attached. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
Response Date: By October 31st General Program Information: PARA Funds are only available for B-Net purchases. PARA Funds are paid to the vendor supplying the B-Nets to the club (e.g., World Cup Supply or Reliable Racing, etc.) after the club has paid its portion to the vendor. PARA does not provide the funds directly to the applicant club or reimburse a club for equipment already purchased.
To receive payment on a grant awarded by PARA, please provide the vendor invoice showing the club’s payment has been made and that the PARA portion remains due, and the KBF award letter if applicable.

The Commonwealth Financing Authority's statewide Local Share Account program accepts applications September 1 through November 30, 2026, funding public-interest projects from $25,000 in eligible costs up to $1,000,000 per grant request out of Pennsylvania gaming revenue. Nonprofits are not eligible applicants and must be sponsored by a county, municipality, authority, or development agency. Here is how the sponsorship structure actually works, what the three-month window is really for, and why the ownership-and-maintenance clause decides more applications than the project narrative.
