Site Visits, Grant Agreements and Reporting Procedures

Site Visit

Site visits provide an opportunity to see beyond proposals, to meet the people involved and get a feel for the environment in which a proposed project will take place. The Dewan Foundation will schedule this visit at the convenience of the proposing organization.

Grant Agreement

All awards will be made subject to the terms of a grant agreement outlining the responsibilities of the grantee.

Reporting Guidelines

The Dewan Foundation wishes to maintain ongoing contact with each organization that receives a  grant and to be up-to-date on the progress of funded activities. Mindful of the demands on the time of executives and staff, project reporting will be kept to a minimum. 

Foundation grants are learning opportunities both for grantees and for grant makers. Your reports are a means to communicate the knowledge being acquired. The Dewan Foundation is interested in accomplishments, as any grant making organization would be, but we are also genuinely interested and concerned with method and practice.  Few projects go exactly as planned, but any project can strengthen an organization if learning occurs. Your candor will help us understand how your organization and your delivery of services have been improved through a grant from the Dewan Foundation.
