Advice from a Friend

Grant Applicant - applied in 2015

The application was easy and straight to the point. The questions were easy to understand and the since they limit the word count on your response it's easy to keep you responses short and sweet.

Pros

Worth the time to pitch

Grant Applicant - applied in 2010

They talk a good line, but they are so completely unresponsive to what people are saying to them. They know it all, they knew it first, and they know more than any "constituent" will ever know. Despite all their talk to the opposite. I am not a bitter non-funded org - I have actually gotten funding a number of times, and I still hate dealing with them.

Cons

Not worth the time to pitch
