How are the featured organizations selected?
Seasoned grantmakers and other professionals in the field review all proposals. The current committee includes 60 individuals who read across a wide range of fields. They rank and comment on proposals, and the combination of their ranking and their detailed responses fuels the final decisions. A certified public accountant reviews all financial materials. Diversity across types of programs, fields of interest (Nature, Culture, Human Services, International, and their respective subfields), location, and constituency are also central to our wish to create a broadly attractive and engaging publication.
