Grant Declination: Ohio National Foundation (Cincinnati)

We recently learned that Ohio National Foundation did not approve our grant request. BDPA Education and Technology Foundation (BETF) partnered with BDPA Cincinnati on a $5,000 grant request to Ohio National Foundation in an effort to partially fund STEM-based youth education programs.

The declination letter read as follows:

---

Dear Mr. Hicks,

Our Contributions Committee met recently to consider outstanding requests and I am sorry to inform you that The Ohio National Foundation will be unable to provide a contribution to BDPA Education and Technology Foundation.

We are sorry we cannot aid you in your endeavor; but, as you may understand, we receive many such requests and are unable to honor them all.

Best wishes in your fund raising endeavors.

Sincerely,
Anthony G. Esposito
