Limitations on giving
We are committed to supporting as many community initiatives as possible. However, due to the large number of requests we receive, not all proposals, even those from valuable organizations, may be approved. Please understand that a decision not to fund your request in no way reflects the importance of your organization or the essential services you provide.
Application Process & Timeline
New Horizon Co-op will not accept phone calls as donations/sponsorship requests. To be considered for support, all requests must be in writing and our online form must be filled out correctly and handed in with your donation request letter.
All requests will be reviewed within 2 weeks of submission. Please allow us 3 weeks before responding to your request. New Horizon Co-op will contact you regardless of our decision, so you are informed properly.
