Writing a strong proposal
We prioritize organizations and programs that center access, inclusion and opportunity, and use input from the communities they serve to improve outcomes. We believe that we are stronger together, and communities thrive when efforts are intentional and coordinated.
Strong proposals will provide evidence in one or more of the following areas. The organization:
Invests in communities where such programming would otherwise be unavailable or limited
Is led by, and in service to underserved communities
Is able to speak effectively about engaging stakeholders in program development
Engages in collective impact initiatives
Works in collaboration with nonprofits, governments, philanthropy and community-based organizations
