With our current budget, we’re typically able to make about 20 grants from those applications. Jeff, his two children and Lori are all allocated grantmaking budget. We also allocate grantmaking budget to a guest grantmaker each grant cycle.
The guest grantmaker is different every grant cycle. They each review the grant applications independently, and they each have different areas of interest and focus. There may be some questions from us if we need to understand elements of your grant application.
After the review is complete, we will select the grant applications that will be funded. We will notify your organization via email by either June or December if we decide to fund your grant application and also if we decide to not fund your grant request. The email will come from the Common Grant Application portal.
You can always check the status of your grant request by logging into your account on the Common Grant Application . After an application is selected for funding there may be some additional discussion between us and your organization, after which a check will be issued to your organization. Depending on the grant cycle, our goal is to issue grant checks by either June 30 or December 31 .
