Accepted Franciscus - Grant Application

[Franciscus]

Firm Name
b:bLAWg

Which grant pool are you applying for?
News and Media

How do you plan on using your grant funding?
We plan to use the grand funding in order to pay our firm's writer(s) and employee(s), as well as to cover miscellaneous costs as they may arise. This will allow for an incentive to produce high-quality and in-depth coverage of the legal and economic beats in Redmont, and for us to improve infrastructure around it, while not suffering the corrupting influences that selling advertising may subject the firm to.

Ideal Grant Amount $35,000, renewable monthly

If awarded, I intend to use the grant money allocated to me for its intended purpose on which it was approved for, and provide a breakdown in my application thread of how the funding was used.
Yes

Please provide a more detailed breakdown of how the grant amount would be allocated.

Thank you.

I anticipate the following:

• Advertising/Cost of sales/Overhead — $5,000/month
• Legal Research — 20 hours/month @ $500/hour = $10,000/month
• Economic research — 10 hours/month @ $500/hour = $5,000/month
• Long-form writing — 4 long articles/month @ $2000/article = $8,000/month
• Long-form Editing — 4 articles/month @ $1000/article = $4,000/month
• Short-form writing — 2 short articles/month @ $1000/article = $2,000 / month
• Short-form editing — 2 short articles/month @500/article = $1,000/month

Total: $35,000/month

In the event that this grant is non-renewable and only (a finite) N months can be provisioned at a time, I’d ask that the grant be given for N months at the above rate.
