if your grant is for core or program support, your narrative report should cover activities of the entire organization or program; do not attempt to separate activities for which you used money from the Foundation or another source. Please be reasonably detailed about activities in which you know the Foundation has a special interest or that your proposal emphasized;
-
if your grant is for a 100% of the cost of specific project, your narrative report should cover all activities funded by the grant.

How have you responded to these changes, or how do you plan to respond to these changes?
