In an effort to increase our grant application efficiency and to communicate on a timelier basis, we are implementing Foundant, our Online Grants Management system. Among many benefits, we think you’ll appreciate your ability to control organizational contact information; to draft, save and submit online applications; and to upload documents and reports.
