What Makes a Proposal a Winner?
Join us for a free webinar where we discuss lessons
learned from the Winning Grant Proposal Competition.
GrantStation’s biennial Winning Grant Proposal Competition has a winner. With over 180 fabulous submittals, the judges narrowed it down to three, and from that small pool picked our winner—Soccer Without Borders. Who penned this award-winning proposal? The organization’s co-founder, Mary Connor.
Join our host, Alice Ruhnke of GrantStation; winner Mary Connor; and two of the judges, Mike Chamberlain of the Grant Professionals Association and Gayle Carpentier of TechSoup, in a lively discussion about why this particular proposal was selected as the winner.
Specifics about the proposal, as well as the time and effort that Mary put into it, will be discussed. Learn what made this proposal stand out from the rest of the very well-written submittals.
Register for this valuable, FREE webinar held on October 18th at 2:00 PM Eastern!
