Anxiously awaiting news concerning some dear friends of mine...they are waiting to hear if their grant will be refunded. I feel as nervous and anxious as if it were my own program.
It's such a hard thing to pour yourself into these programs with the thought that it could be taken away at every grant competition. And really, the heart and soul of each of these programs is the people that labor each day to build them. It's the people that care, that want to make a difference - that's what makes the most difference to the participants. Knowing they have people who support them, guide them, care about them...
Such a difficult thing to think of any program shutting down. I always think about the people who are waiting. Wondering. Hoping.
But this one, this one is especially close to my heart.

I completely agree with you Amber! Competition time is always a Nail Biter. :(
