Step One
Completing the State IMPAC Funding Request Form

There are two State IMPAC Request forms.  The CAMPAIGN REQUEST FORM is for requests for contributions to ballot measure campaigns.  The PROGRAM REQUEST FORM is for requests for contributions to any other issue activity.  The form must be completely and legibly filled out, signed by the Board President and all supporting documents must be attached.

Step Two
E-mail or Mail the Request Form to C.A.R.

E-mail to: elizabethg@car.org
Mail to: State IMPAC c/o C.A.R.
980 9th Street, Suite 1430
Sacramento, CA 95814

State IMPAC Requests must be received at least three weeks before a scheduled meeting of the IMPAC Trustees to be considered for funding.

Step Three
Staff Analysis and Trustee Approval

IMPAC staff, and an IMPAC Trustee assigned to the particular request, review the request and supporting materials to assure compliance with IMPAC guidelines and local, state, and federal requirements.  Both staff and the Trustee may call the applicant to gather additional information. The staff and Trustee analysis of the request is submitted to the Trustees for their consideration.   All State IMPAC Requests are submitted to the IMPAC Trustees for approval, and applicants are expected to make a presentation to the Trustees. 

Step Four
Check Preparation

Upon IMPAC Trustee approval of the request, IMPAC accounting staff prepare and mail a check to the designated check recipient.  Check preparation takes approximately one week.
