A document prepared by an “expert†or person from the community or other organizations acknowledging they support the application for a grant. Frankly, most that I have seen are “Blah, blah, blah.†If a funding organization says that it wants letters of support, do not include any with an application. If a funding organization asks for letters of support, be certain to ask for them early and be sure it addresses what the connection is to the project for which you seek funds.
