6-Micro Grant Budget Workbook Template.xlsx

This file is a Micro Grant Budget Workbook Template for Round 4 grants administered by the State of Delaware's Department of Services for Children, Youth, Families and their Seniors (DOSC). The template is designed for legal entities operating within Delaware applying for Micro Grant funding of up to $10,000 to address the state's opioid crisis. The workbook contains personnel detail worksheets for Year 1 and Year 2 grant periods, budget worksheets, and budget narratives organized by standard federal cost categories. The template accommodates staff salary documentation including full-time equivalency (FTE) percentages, fringe benefits calculations, and justifications for year-over-year increases. The budget structure supports two-year grant periods with separate tracking for requested funds and other resources.

The budget workbook template itemizes allowable expenses across seven major categories: staff salaries, staff fringe benefits, travel and training (with a maximum mileage reimbursement rate of $0.50 per mile per Delaware's Budget and Accounting Policy Manual), contractual costs including rent, supplies, equipment and other direct costs, and indirect costs. All line items in the template currently show $0.00 values, indicating this is a blank workbook for applicants to complete. Applicants must provide detailed budget narratives justifying each category where funds are allocated, with specific guidance requiring explanations of how costs were determined and justifications for any increases from previous contract years. The grant program prioritizes accessibility with no prior operational history requirement, though previous DOSC grantees will be evaluated on past performance, contract fidelity, and compliance. Organizations must be formally registered, legally incorporated entities with transparent governance structures and qualified, professional staffing capacity.
