The GRID conducts due-diligence on prospective grantees and prepares a customized Investment Opportunity report and assessment, as described below:

​

Investment Opportunity Report

The Investment Opportunity Report is a four-page briefing that highlights the findings from due-diligence conducted on the proposed project. It includes the project design, grantee's track record, project objectives, budget, financial analysis of past use and source of funds, a review of the leadership, independent references, risk analysis and the objective opinion of the researcher.

​

Assessment Report

The Assessment Report is produced six weeks after the funded project concludes. It includes information measuring the effect of the intervention on the beneficiary and community - both analyzed against the expected results. It also includes a financial summary that compares the actual-verses-budgeted expenditures, photographs of beneficiaries and their testimonies, and the researcher's independent opinion of the project and recommendations for the future.
