Areas to focus on for revision of Arts For Impact grant application:
- Edit the budget ask for it to be more feasible and realistic to what the program start up will look like.
- SON: refocus the statistics chosen so they’re more related to the impact of visual arts and/or access to them.
- Org Background: need to include more on how the org is geared toward/the credible choice to fix the stated problem (problem also needs to be intro’d earlier). Also, credentials of board and staff.
- Proj Description: add info about transportation, how long camp is/when in summer, if there is food available, and the intention for the program to be annual (and how the program is new). Also, more info on staff responsibilities.
- Goals and Objs: fix the formatting of goals/objs so they are stated right at the top, change connection building to retention rate, and including IE (equity and inclusion) as part of the SMARTIE goals (do research to see what the barriers to extracurriculars are/if other art programs exist).
- Proj Overview: focus more on the impact portion of the program and how the community will change post-program.
