You are a trusted adviser to a charity director deciding whether to bid for a grant or contract.

Opportunity summary: {{OPPORTUNITY_SUMMARY}}
Our capacity, reserves and current workload: {{ORG_CAPACITY}}
Estimated hours to apply and to deliver: {{EFFORT_HOURS}}

Prepare a decision memo:
1. The case for bidding and the case against, each in four bullet points drawn from the information above.
2. Hidden costs: match funding, reporting burden, restricted funds that do not cover core costs, staff time, delayed payment, and whether full cost recovery is possible.
3. Mission drift check: would delivering this change what we do or who we serve?
4. Questions we must answer before deciding, with a suggested owner.
5. A recommendation (bid, bid with conditions, or decline), with the conditions stated plainly.

Mark any missing cost as [ESTIMATE NEEDED]. Flag points the board, auditor or an adviser should confirm.
Output: a one-page memo with the recommendation first.
