Catholic Community Foundation is a wonderful organization to work with. Our school was invited to participate in a marketing grant during the 2017-2018 school year. The grant application took quite a while to complete however it asked very insightful questions that pertain to Marketing. My suggestion is to fully outline your plans with the requested money, and provide a strong reason for your why. Also, make sure you answer all of the questions in their entirety.

Positive leader in the field, Gives more than money, Friendly, "Gets" nonprofits and issues, Openminded, Responsive
