  • Sanitizing equipment to maintain healthy environments during a crisis
  • Repairs to infrastructure damaged from a disaster
  • An unexpected opportunity to reach a specific underserved population
  • Purchase of a wheelchair accessible vehicle to improve transportation service to older adults with disabilities
  • Costs associated with purchase and implementation of a database that will help collect better data or improve donor engagement
  • Financial audit
  • Expanding an organization's vehicle fleet to better serve older adults or increase the scale of a transportation service
  • Consultant fees for advising on an organization's rebrand or strengthening monitoring and evaluation systems
