Session 6: Grant Proposal Writing for Beginners

Egg Harbor, WI US
July 29, 2024 to July 30, 2024
Whether a government agency requires a 100+ single-spaced page grant application or a private foundation requires 3 double-spaced pages, common elements appear in nearly every grant proposal. Micro case studies will be used to illustrate writing pitfalls and stimulate discussion about ways to improve sections of the narrative. You will see resources for identifying public and private sponsors and learn a process to help pick the ones that have the highest probability of funding your projects.
