2002 Grantseeker Survey
In the Summer
of 2002, the Pottruck Family Foundation and the Fleishhacker
Foundation conducted a joint survey of grantees to educate ourselves
and other funders about how grantseekers view the grants process.
We were particularly interested in the grantseeker perspective on
what works and what parts of the process need improvement. We are
committed to sharing the results of the study with our peers in
hopes they will learn and perhaps incorporate some of the recommendations
into practice.
The questionnaire
and the results, including verbatim comments to the open-ended questions,
are here for review, as well as an article co-authored by Pottruck
Family Foundation Executive Director Nancy Wiltsek and Fleishhacker
Foundation Executive Director Christine Elbel. The article is scheduled
for publication in the Association of Small Foundations May 2003
Newsletter.
The Pottruck
Family Foundation wishes to thank Christine Elbel and the Fleishhacker
Foundation for partnering with us on this project. We also wish
to thank Jessica Verostick, 2002 Pottruck/Simmons
Intern, for her hard work tabulating and organizing the results.
