This describes a grant application process that emphasizes the importance of initial, low-effort engagement through a letter of inquiry before committing to a full application. The letter allows applicants to receive preliminary feedback on how well their request aligns with the funding priorities of the grantor. Applicants are advised to allow 30 days for a response from program officers, indicating an organized review process that respects the applicants' time and resources while ensuring alignment with the funder's goals.
