GRANTWRITING / Quote from Janet Lumb, Festival Accès Asie, Montreal, 2011

*A HAPPY CLIENT*

Quote from Janet Lumb, Festival Accès Asie, Montreal, 2011

"My grant applications to Canada Council for the Arts for funding for
Festival Accès Asie, an Asian arts festival in Montreal, have been
successful since 1998 but have over several years always included
comments such as: needs more clarity, please explain with more detail
and back up your explanations with examples, etc.

Thanks to Jane's AMAZING patience, questions, help and writing to
better communicate and transmit from my head to words on paper, the
feedback and comments from the Canada Council for the arts Equity
officer were for a FIRST TIME EVER:

Janet!! Your application was ...so strong... ... clear, articulate,
well described, detailed concise and so well communicated !


I beamed with joy at the time but the credit REALLY belongs to Jane, not me.
THANK YOU JANE!!"


Well that quote made my day ! : )
