Grant Seeking 101
You've heard foundation grants should make up 10-20% of your annual budget. Grant Seeking 101 will help you reach that goal! During four live webinars, you will learn: how to approach foundations, create long-lasting relationships with them, all the elements that make a grantable request, get to know other staff in your situation, and so much more. Upon completion, you will have everything you need to submit a viable grant request, peers to help you along the way, and a coach at the Foundations Engagement office to continue helping you with future requests.
