The 2019 State of Grantseeking Report
There were 2,838 respondents to this survey! What a wonderful reflection on the continued interest of the grantseeking community in sharing their experiences.
Because of their assistance, and the willingness of staff and volunteers from grassroots organizations, educational institutions, and government entities to take the time to make their voices heard, we can give you the benchmarks to ensure that your grantseeking is guided to success.
