Grantsmanship - SPRUCE PINE

Description: This one-day course will help you organize the process of planning for and finding grants to support your nonprofit organization’s work

Details:

This one-day course will help you organize the process of planning for and finding grants to support your nonprofit organization’s work.  It is based on the premise that grant writers do not get grants; sound programs and planning do.  This interactive session will include:

• Part One – Learn a document management system that brings together all the information you need to apply for most grants.  This tool can help develop competitive proposals and ensure a good process for communications among staff, board, volunteers, and partners. 
• Part Two – Think through the elements of a good grants strategy and how to use that to identify funding opportunities for your organization.   Learn how to adapt your organization’s grant strategy for the new economy, which has impacted foundations’ ability to give and priorities for funding.  
• Part Three – Get tips on writing competitive proposals.
