It’s been really helpful as a funder to learn about
new ways to review and select awardees with an
abundance mindset. Thanks for all your thoughtfulness.

Political action and lobbying are difficult skills and
activities to implement and hone, but
are increasingly important.

I love the governance structure proposed.
It provides a great place for sharing, collaboration, and learning.
Great work on this!!

I am really happy to see the emphasis on unrestricted funding and guiding principles. Great work!

Feeling energized by all the incredible people
focused on this work and looking forward
to deepening connections!

There is a definite need for unrestricted funding for food policy councils.
As staff at a food policy council, we often have to squeeze support
for our basic organizational functioning into other grants.

Thank you so such a thoughtful
and engaging process! We appreciate
this opportunity to learn and grow.

I feel excited to have a chance to share our
story and vision for our community through
this grantmaking application process.

This is really exciting
and much needed.
Thank you for your hard work!

I am thrilled to see greater funding for
food policy councils. Thank you for all
your hard work to this point!
