How Best to Work with the Fund
As much as possible, the Fund prefers to conduct all business in writing.

If necessary, you may call the Grant Office at 617-451-6178. To maintain the consistency, impartiality and fairness of the process, the trustees ask that you do not contact them about any aspect of your grant request. 

Decisions are made based on the information provided in the application materials, so clarity and completeness are important. If the trustees have questions or require more information to make a decision, you will be contacted.

In general, the trustees do not schedule interviews, offer technical assistance, meet with applicants, provide advice, or make formal site visits.
