Arts Council staff advise applicants to prepare offline, proofread and upload early on Neighborly
Summary
Program staff advised applicants to draft materials in Word, check spelling and character counts (Neighborly has no spell check), upload full supporting documents, and submit well before the 5 PM deadline to allow staff to flag errors.
Kathy Collins said applicants should prepare parts of the Neighborly application offline—copying text from Word into the online form—because “Neighborly does not have spell check in their system.” She recommended that applicants track word and character counts and supply full vendor or workshop details so reviewers can verify requests.
Martine Collier and Collins urged applicants to submit early so staff can flag errors and help correct them before the deadline. Collins warned that incomplete applications are ineligible and that uploads after 5:00 PM Eastern on July 31 will not be accepted.
