Make Grant Description optional in the Donor Portal
Recently the grant description field was marked as required for the Donor Portal via another IdeaLab. However this is a burden for us and our fundholders (and I imagine some of your other clients too).
I would love to this the grant description field be a Donor Portal Setting checkbox where the field could be optionally required. This would meet the needs of all of your clients, empowering them to set up the portal in the best way to support their operations.
We are worried that more of our fundholders will restrict their grants if this field is required and we are trying to encourage unrestricted funding to nonprofits in our community.
10/10/2024: Portal-Fund Manager: Updated the grant request to no longer require the grant request description. This will allow fund managers the option to complete a description on the grant request.

Requiring this field to be mandatory would be a disservice to our donors.
