Reviewer 1442 - Grant Applicant - applied before 2014

We have found everyone here to be highly professional and ethical to work with, and have received multiple grants over the years, but found them to be quite exacting about proposal requirements. Follow guidelines exactly, and if funded (or not), keep them on your newsletter mailing list throughout the year. A meeting between key executives was required prior to final proposal submission.

Pros

Insightful, "Gets" nonprofits and issues

A great organization that provides capital support. They prefer for you to have the majority of your funding for a project already committed, but they will walk you through the entire process. Make sure to reach out early with a project description to make sure it is something that they would be interested in funding.
