@AnaGabela -- I'm sorry, but I missed the contact name and email address that you provided. Is there any way for me to edit the numfocus record that I submitted yesterday?

[AnaGabela]

HI!
I am checking to see the status of all the applications, but numfocus may take a bit to get back to me.

@ElizabethEast I don't think you can edit the form but please try and email finance@numfocus.org with your changes. You can cc me if you like so I can keep checking on this angabela@gmail.com

Let me know if you have any other questions.
