Based on a survey of grantees and declined applicants conducted last year by the Center for Effective Philanthropy, the report (74 pages, PDF) found that grantees' perceptions of the foundation remained positive across most measures, including impact on grantees' fields (82nd percentile among nearly three hundred peer organizations), impact on organizations (63rd percentile), funder-grantee relationships (70th percentile), openness to ideas from grantees about its strategy (80th percentile), and transparency (67th percentile). Within its customized peer cohort of twenty-three foundations, the foundation ranked highest on overall relationships with grantees, fairness in its treatment of grantees, staff responsiveness, clarity of communications with respect to goals and strategy, and consistency of the information it provides.
