The Tennessee Bar Foundation has announced important dates for the 2024 IOLTA grant application process. The grant application is now available on the foundation’s website, which also has tips for drafting successful applications. Funding is available for projects that improve the administration of justice or provide legal services. Completed applications must be submitted in hard copy via U.S. mail with a visible postmark dated no later than Sept. 13. IOLTA awards are made possible from the interest earned on lawyers’ pooled trust checking accounts. The foundation predicts that the total grant amount for 2024 will increase significantly over the 2023 total and encourages all organizations, but especially new applicants, to apply.
