Grant Opportunity: CETF Matching Funds for Applications to CASF Adoption Account for Adoptions
CETF will provide up to 15% of the required match for interested CBOs to apply to the CPUC CASF Adoption Account for achieving actual verified adoptions (15% for up to $250 per adoption or up to $37.50) per verified new subscriptions by low-income unconnected households. Pursuant to Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with Frontier Communications and Charter Communications, CETF currently manages grants in Frontier service areas for $60 per adoption plus a new computing device and has awarded grants in the Charter services areas for $120 per adoption and will be working with those grantees to explore how they can leverage CETF funding as match for Adoption Account grants.
