To foster success in developing sustainable, quality federal work study community service
initiatives, CACC has developed a supportive infrastructure and has high expectations of

• Institutional Support: Each participating institution must contribute a 200% match in
cash and in-kind contributions (whether or not the full amount of the award is
expended during the grant cycle).
• Reporting Requirements: The grant period for this funding is October 8, 2004 through
June 30, 2005. Participants will be asked to submit a brief 1-2 page narrative report
within 30 days after June 30, 2005, the end of the grant period (meaning narrative
reports are due by July 31, 2005). Requirements for the contents of this report—
which must include data on how many people participated in events/activities, as
well as explanation of how the federal work study community service initiative met
its proposed outcomes—will be provided more thoroughly at a later date when

submitting invoices to California Campus Compact for expenses incurred as a result
of grant activity. All invoices must be submitted within 60 days after June 30, 2005,
