- Funds may only be used for school buses and rented charter buses or vans specifically required for transportation of participants. Funds may not be used to reimburse mileage or provide travel expenses on borrowed vehicles or vehicles belonging to the grantee organization that do not require specialized licenses and drivers. An invoice for transportation services and a final report must be submitted to the Greater Toledo Community Foundation before payment is issued.
