Free Guide to Streamlining Available

Download Guide to Streamlining, five great tools now available from Project Streamline.

The Guide to Streamlining series includes practical (doable!) recommendations such as:

• Align grant schedules with the grantee’s timing, not the funder’s.
• Ask only for information you will use.
• Don’t ask organizations for information you can look up yourself.
• Don’t insist on superfluous and time-consuming requirements such as multiple copies, copies of invoices, bills, checks, sales slips, time cards, and several notarized signatures.
• Create a shorter application for smaller grants, general operating grants, and for repeat grantees.

About Project Streamline

Project Streamline is a collaborative effort of organizations from both sides of the grantmaker/grantseeker divide who are studying grant application and reporting practices, their impact on grantseekers and grantmakers, and the implications for the field. ASF is a proud collaborator.
