The Wake County Sheriff's Office and Grant Writing USA will present a two-day grant writing workshop for beginning and experienced grant writers from city, county, and state agencies as well as healthcare organizations, nonprofits, K-12, colleges, and universities.
Day one will cover:
- Understanding the critical difference between organizational needs and the needs of the community.
- Developing credibility as an applicant.
- Researching, measuring, and articulating community needs to be addressed with the proposed grant
- Measuring impact and defining success
- Presenting and justifying your method for addressing the need
Day two will cover:
- Developing your subjective and objective plan for grant evaluation and integrating it with the grantmaker's required evaluation and reporting system
- Developing a budget, analyzing cash flow, determining if you can afford to get this grant before submitting an application
- Summarizing your request for that impossibly small summary opportunity on the standard federal cover page or the one/two page foundation request
- Locating and tracking relevant grant opportunities from federal, state, and local government sources, private foundations, and corporate giving programs
- Allocating and forecasting proposal team work load before the RFP is released
- Dissecting the RFP, researching enabling legislation, understanding the "spirit and intent" of the grant program, communicating openly and honestly.
Nonprofits received discounted registration using code LESS50. Registration includes two days of instruction, workbook, and access to the Alumni Forum of tools, helpful discussions, and sample grant proposals. Participants have lunch on their own. CEU credits available.
