They don't have any contact information available other than a general email address, so it was hard to know even how to thank them.

Reviewer 8718 - Grant Applicant - applied in 2017
The application is not complex, but it is frustrating that the funder never seems to provide the full amount requested.

3 hard copies of each application? We'd love to apply online to save paper.
Not a lot of communication. Really, VERY little communication.
Clear application requirements

Be specific and approach ONLY when you have a capital project that can be seen and/or touched- because they ask for far more of your time and resources than necessary in comparison to the grant size. You need to demonstrate exactly how that tangible item will help you meet outcomes or goals. And please be aware that they ask for MAILED copies (eyeroll) IN TRIPLICATE. Absolutely unnecessary. And there isn't anyone to speak to if you have questions.
Inadvertently exerts negative influence in the field, Doesn't "get" nonprofits and issues, Difficult to work with, Culturally incompetent, Bureaucratic

Like all funders who operate "at arms length" - this one would benefit from relationships that allow them to see how general operating funds for the organizations they prefer to fund (under $1 million budget) would be more impactful. The kind of projects they want to fund require things they don't want to fund.
Invest in an online submission system. Offer general operating grants if you don't want to fund smaller budgets. Asking for mailed paper copies in triplicate is offensive.
