If you register as an individual, you will follow the prompts to put in your name, address, and email address that will become part of your user profile. There is a demographic section that you must fill out, too, so be sure to read the questions carefully. Once registered, you will be brought to your personal portal page which will tell you what grants are available to you as well as applying for an LCC grant. (Review this video for more instruction.)
If you want to apply as an organization, you will need to register your organization in the system. Click "Organization". On the next page you will search for your organization in the search field:
- If you CANNOT FIND your organization in the search field, click the link at the top of the page to register your organization manually. The first part of the form is about the organization, the second part of the form is where you enter your name and email which will become your user profile information. Your email will be your username. Most previous LCC applicants will not be found in the search field and will need to register their organization manually. Once you complete the registration you will receive an email to activate your account and you can set your password and login.
- If you do find your organization in the search field, simply select it, and enter your name and email which will become your user profile information. Your email will be your username. Once you complete the registration you will receive an email to activate your account and you can set your password and login.
- You will now be associated with that organization and any grants you apply to with that email address will be on behalf of that organization. Once registered you will be brought to your personal portal page which will tell you what grants are available to your organization as well as applying for an LCC grant. (Review this video for more instruction.)
If you are part of an organization or an LCC and your email is associated with that organization, and you want to apply as a “grant-seeking individual” you MUST register using a different email address.
If you get a message saying your email address is already in the system when you register, you can click "Forgot Password?" to trigger an email that will direct you to reset your password so you can login. Some applicants who have applied directly to the Mass Cultural Council in the past may have a user profile in the grants management system already.
