Increased membership by 50% seems a little ambitious/unrealistic?

Excellent, clear, specific measurable goals and objectives.

Given the size of your budget, I'd like to see a little more reliance on corporate support and a little less reliance on DOS funds

Also, given the size of your budget, I think you should have more funds allocated to marketing, particularly last year.

Impact - Numbers don't appear to add up to total of 27,000. Did not address economic impact. It seems like a limited number of activities for the size of the operating budget.

Accessibility - Need to update 504 Evaluation.

Appreciate that 3 of the 9 titles are authored or co-authored by women. Would encourage exploring more diversity of voices and gender parity in play selections for future.

Applaud commitment to engaging youth and students through education programming and classes.

No clear sense of economic impact to community and local businesses.

Would like to see more detail of how programming efforts will be evaluated.

Budget item for Marketing Director is blank.

Purely a personal comment, but would recommend a final edit before submitting proposal to catch any last spelling and grammar changes that might be warranted.

Very well defined and measurable goals and objectives

Did leave off the amount of intended marketing spending increase from Objective 2

Great community partnerships

The impact numbers for the total individuals to benefit do not add up

Would have liked to know more about what changes are planned for the marketing plan, especially since the marketing budget doubled

I am very confident in the organization's fiscal stability & ability to carry out the proposed activities

Very clear goals and objectives. Very easy to read.

a 50% increase in membership? Already past the goal. good.

How do you plan to identify 8-12 new grants? Seemed like a large number?

a 50% jump in marketing in one year?

Your final report was 23 days late last year

Good support material

Excellence: Proposal includes measurable goals, objectives, and activities with a strong focus on local impact.

Impact: Strong description of project impact along with a robust marketing and promotion plan.

Management: Evaluation plan could be strengthened with a description of how the project team will measure the actual impact of project activities (surveys, feedback instruments, youth participation in summer programs, etc.).

Accessibility: Section 504 plan evaluation was completed more than 2 years ago.
