Case Study: Honnold Foundation saves time and reaches 90 countries with Submittable

Delivering Solar Power to Communities Around the World

The Honnold Foundation, founded by Alex Honnold in 2012, provides funding to grassroots organizations around the world for solar energy projects. Before using Submittable, the team handled grant applications by email and had to download and store every PDF, which made the process slow and difficult for a small review team.

With Submittable, the Honnold Foundation moved its full grant process into one place, including applications, funding, award letters, and grant reports. The team used Submittable’s forms, labeling, search, and reporting tools to review more than 700 applications in just over a week, save 80+ hours per application season, and receive applications from 90 countries in its first year.
