Funding applications - guidance
Don’t let your bid go in the bin - posted: 17.5.2010
Directory of Social Change (DSC) research shows that over the latest financial year over one-third of all applications to charitable grantmakers were ineligible – over 363,000 went in the bin. Did you know that if each ineligible application took ten minutes to write it would add up to nearly seven years of wasted effort every year?
