Grant Opportunities
In-Cycle Grant Opportunity Information
Letter of Intent
The first step in the process of a grant application to the Alpha-1 Foundation is to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI). The submission of an LOI is required for each grant category. An applicant must submit an LOI in order to submit a grant application. A grant application that is submitted without an LOI will result in an automatic denial of funding and the application will be returned to the investigator.
