The Foundation has recently changed it's priorities. Technically-speaking it's abandoning its previous goals. For us, as a grantee, it will mean curtailing work that's in progress.
In three years of funding we had three different program officers. However, they are responsive and collaborative.

The program officer was honest, transparent in giving advice, and an excellent steward for our proposal. We never felt that we were unclear on what we might ask for and what the interests of the Foundation might be. A very positive experience!

Keep up the great work.
Gave us guidance not only on what to emphasize, but also what was not of interest to fulfilling their mission. We were also given realistic expectations of what amount we might expect.

Because they have a former Executive Director of a non profit on staff, they are able to give great advice and guidance. The Fund has been a great mentor to us and have actively helped us grow
