is it detrimental to ask for a larger sum of money? in short do you deny someone for asking for "too much" money?

10:20
Any questions, you can start queuing them up now in the chat! Thanks, Clyde.

12:41
You can drop your questions here or raise your hand using the “Raise Hand” function.

13:26
If you have any questions after today, you can email the Board at info@njcivicinfo.org

13:43
Especially if you need to be connected with a university partner!

16:44
All of this information will also be sent via email to all grantees once they are selected.

18:35
Hi Stefanie and Consortium team. It would be helpful to get connected to the participating Universities in order to discuss our potential project. Who (or what email is best) should we reach out to in order to get a list of the contact person(s) at the participating universities?

18:57
Hey, Jeff! You can email info@njcivicinfo.org

19:06
I know your project fairly well so I can think of a couple folks who might be good.

19:19
Thank you Stefanie, I will use that email.

21:31
Got questions? Raise your hand or drop it here.

21:53
We already have a potential university partner at Kean. Aside from our own proposal, they would like more information on the role they’d play. Is there a contact connected to NJCIC at Kean they should reach out to?

22:37
Aziza, yes — I believe Chris has that contact name now or is seeking it.

22:45
We can ask him next.

23:09
Hi Aziza, this is Audrey Kelly from Kean University and I just joined the NJCIC Board. I'd be happy to help

23:18
Welcome, Audrey!

23:28
Hi Audrey!

24:53
Aziza,

25:04
Here is my contact information:

25:20
@Craig, you don’t have to have anything formal in place for most of the universities. An email confirmation can suffice; that is what we

25:25
we have mostly done in the past.

25:32
aukelly@kean.edu; 908-737-7015

26:52
Maybe I missed it, but is there a list of which board members are matched with which university partners?

27:06
Good luck lol

27:06
We had an example of that in the last round, Craig. Stories of AC has Rowan and Stockton.

27:41
@Lee, yes, but I don’t think we have it on the website in a clear way. We can get that.

27:48
Audrey Kelly — Kean

27:57
Chris Daggett/me: Montclair State

28:06
Carl Hausman — Rowan

28:17
Kim Pearson — TCNJ

28:26
Juan Gonzalez — Rutgers

28:42
Kevin Belfield — NJIT

29:00
Thanks Audrey. Got it

29:14
You can see all of the board members (except Audrey Kelly) and their affiliations here: https://njcivicinfo.org/board/

29:54
Welcome Audrey!

30:23
Thank you for all the great answers

31:09
We are allowed to utilize a board member as our university partner, correct?

31:42
@Joe, you can! Carl Hausman served in that role for a project last round.

32:23
Last round, the Board decided that a 10% cap would be applied to overhead requests.

34:08
Follow up on the 10%: If a non-profit partner is allocating salaried resources that did real work (not fiscal transaction), I can probably assume their staff can exceed 10% of the grant if that is how it works out?

34:40
Yes, if your nonprofit partner is doing more than just fiscal sponsorship but are a PARTNER in the work, they could certainly be in the budget.

34:49
Thanks.

36:17
Question popped to mind. What if two applicants want to combine their projects ?

38:01
We can make that happen.

38:04
yes please

38:07
We'll send out an email with details.

40:28
We're always interested in learning about people and/or organizations that are doing good work in our state.

40:54
Can do!

41:51
Aziza I see you, you're up next.

42:17
Refresh the application and it should be long text now.

48:42
Any other questions? Raise your hand please.

48:56
Or drop it here!

49:11
Here is the link to the Consortium's first annual report: https://njcivicinfo.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2021/08/NJ-CIC-2021-Annual-Report.pdf

49:19
100 percent agree, Chris

50:20

50:44
I agree too. Even though we didn’t get the grant, we still started our program using donations. So I was really excited to see the 2nd round of funding.

50:56
Oh nice, Aziza!

51:09
Any other questions?

51:14
If not we will wrap up 🙂

52:18
I’m all good

52:23
Thanks for being here, everyone!

52:53
We will share the recording with you, and if you have any other questions, contact info is on the screen.

57:27
I have to slip off to take my daughter to swim class. Nice to see you all and email us if you have questions!

58:12
The ideal of major donors, individuals, supporting this is huge. As someone new to philanthropy I think it is so interesting that most philanthropic dollars come from individuals. I feel that most non profit news orgs get there money from foundations…

58:22
idea*

58:43
their* (lol)

01:01:28
Yep

01:01:35
lol, Joe is on it!

01:01:38
Bye!

01:01:43
Thank You
