      As stewards of the foundation’s assets, The Kresge Foundation trustees believe that accountability starts with being accessible to those seeking their support. But what makes a solid application–how do you put forth your best case for support? In this session, participants will have had the opportunity to hear Richard L. Dunlap, Program Director – Information Systems for The Kresge Foundation, review Kresge Foundation Application Fact Sheets submitted in advance by selected conference attendees. Participants will gain important insight on how The Kresge Foundation reviews projects and get a quick review of projects that participants may wish to submit to the foundation.

      Participants in this session will learn:

• The basic guidelines of The Kresge Foundation Brick and Mortar grant program
• How to prepare a successful Application Fact Sheet for The Kresge Brick and Mortar program
• How to time your Kresge visit, application and challenge period to maximize your potential Kresge grant.
