With all the responsibilities of staff and volunteers in a nonprofit organization, the idea of writing a grant can be overwhelming. You may be asking yourself how to even begin developing grant proposals without being consumed in the process. This course was developed to provide practical information and strategies you can do today to prepare strong, successful grant proposals tomorrow. We will walk through grant writing fundamentals to get you in the right state of mind and address key areas that can be tackled and shared by multiple individuals to make the process manageable and even fun (okay, maybe not fun, but not unbearable!).
