Grant Applicant - applied in 2021

The foundation seems to prioritize support for groups that bring visibility to the CEO. If you don't impress or flatter her, your funding relationship is likely to suffer. Program staff seem to have very little autonomy over their portfolios.

Cons

Inadvertently exerts negative influence in the field, Difficult to work with

Grant Applicant - applied before 2014

This foundation demands adulation of the president or you're out.
They make some good grants. But they are also petty and mean, not just to grantees but to each other.

Pros

Positive leader in the field, Culturally sensitive
