PROJECT STREAMLINE: IMPROVING GRANT APPLICATIONS & REPORTING
Administrative burdens on grantseekers can be overwhelming. The list of hoops for applicants to jump through varies greatly from one foundation to the next. So we work collaboratively with a variety of grantmakers and grantseekers to demystify and simplify the application process. By doing so, everyone in the partnership can focus on having an impact — and spend less time fighting red tape. Project Streamline's framework of tools and publications is created around four core principles which help you:
- Start fresh: Take a look at your organization's application and reporting requirements.
- Keep expectations in-line: Ensure the effort grantees expend is proportional to the size of the grant, while also taking into consideration any pre-existing relationships.
- Relieve the burden: Minimize the amount of time and money grantseekers spend getting and administering grants, freeing everyone up to focus on mutual goals.
- Improve communication: Make your processes clear and straightforward.
