# §222.194. Are “in-kind” contributions permissible?

- (a) LEAs that are subject to the applicable matching requirement described in [§ 222.193(a)](/cfr/34/222.193.md?p=a) may use allowable third party in-kind contributions as defined below to meet the requirements.
- (b) Third party in-kind contributions mean property or services that benefit this grant program and are contributed by non-Federal third parties without charge to the grantee or by a cost-type contractor under the grant agreement.
- (c) Subject to the limitations of [34 CFR 75.564(c)(2)](/cfr/34/75.564.md?p=c-2) regarding indirect costs, the provisions of [2 CFR 200.306](/cfr/2/200.306.md) govern the allowability and valuation of in-kind contributions, except that it is permissible for a third party to contribute real property to a grantee for a project under this program, so long as no Federal funds are spent for the acquisition of real property.
