The oral history grant I applied for got declined for the third time, this time for reasons unrelated to this specific project. But in the denial letter they state "This is unfortunate because, because this proposal is ready to go. Reviewers strongly encourage you to reapply in the October small grants round if you resolve the final reports before that time." Given that statement, I'm going to try one more time before throwing in the towel, even though I said this time would be the last attempt. The grant I am requesting is about $9,500.
