Applications for the Fund are accepted four times throughout the year (January, April, July, and October) beginning in July 2007. The application process itself is designed to be a rigorous process of self-examination, intention clarification and long range planning. Applications will be reviewed for selection by The Starfish Fund and participants of the Fund will be required to:

• Have participated or agree to participate in “What One Person Can Do” – a twelve week program regarding the capabilities that reside in all people, the experience of loving-kindness, ownership and responsibility.
• If looking to start a business, develop a business plan with the assistance of S.C.O.R.E. (Service Corps of Retired Executives).
• Agree to submit a personal income statement each month and if they are starting a new business, a profit and loss statement each month as well.
• Agree to work with a coach on a regular basis in pursuit of their goal as identified on their The Starfish Fund application.

Additionally, participants are encouraged to contribute a minimum of ten percent of their earnings in perpetuity to The Starfish Fund so that others may have the same opportunity they have had.
