FY17 Orange Funding Application Feedback(Third Sector Alliance Survey) 47 <br /> 18 As a non-profit agency,we have received ongoing support from Orange Co/Town of CH/Carr and want to continue to 2/16/2016 12:38 PM <br /> comply w/application instructions and/or new requirements.However,we also have conflicting priorities during <br /> orientation with another orange county agency that is helping our families and children.Having a little more flexibility to <br /> have the mandatory orientation or making video/audio recordings from that meeting available will be extremely helpful <br /> moving forward in order to submit a high quality application.Thank you! <br /> 19 Chatham County and United Way of Chatham County use a very friendly grant process where an organization can 2/16/2016 12:32 PM <br /> easily have more than one person work on the document.All one must do is pull up their site and enter your own <br /> username and password.The application is there for whoever needs to input information.You can maneuver around <br /> in the document and enter data,save it,and close without losing data.The process for delivering the application is the <br /> same for both organizations.The process has clearly been tweaked in order to work with nonprofits making it much <br /> more simpler for small,understaffed agencies. <br /> 20 UN-COMBINE with the federal applications.We do not seek federal funding because of these issues.What we 2/16/2016 12:24 PM <br /> appreciate about the local process is that the people involved know us,it is local,and unnecessary information is not <br /> requested.All these different materials just mean the proc ss was a red-hot mess rather than a chance to <br /> communication successes and goals with friendly,supportive funders,as it is at best. <br /> 21 Make sections in the combined application for splicing out what each pot of money is paying for.This gets especially 2/16/2016 12:24 PM <br /> difficult <br /> 23 / 24 <br />
