| Can anyone point me to best practices information regarding monitoring and oversight practices for grant makers? Of particular interest for me is the frequency and need of site visits to grantees | ||

| I would posit that the difficulty or complexity of grant application is merely one way a grant maker uses to thin the list of applicants. With more and more nonprofits seeking a more slowly growing pool of funds, building in more flaming hoops is just one way of their seeing who wants it most. I tend to shy away from those organizations (typically government) that throw all sorts of hurtles up for a noncommensurate grant. A weeks worth of fact assembling for a few thousand dollars is not the best use of my time. It is an old observation that it takes just as much effort to ask for a hundred thousand as it does for a thousand. | ||

| This grant application is 100% electronic -- www.summercompany.ca - the technology is custom and built by the Ontario government. | ||
