A one-day workshop to examine strategies and develop effective techniques for writing successful proposals for securing organizational funding or project support. Take an inspiring and informative look at what makes a winning proposal. Learn more about funders, what they are looking for and how they select winning proposals. Learn how to lay-out and write a credible, easy to read proposal that meets your funders' needs.
An effective grant proposal presents a compelling case for your organization and your project or program. It convinces your potential funder that your goals are aligned with theirs and makes them want to support your work by awarding you a grant.

Researching potential sources of grant funding
-
Writing in a positive, audience-focused style
-
Providing the information that funders want to know
-
Presenting your organization and project in the best possible light
-
Presenting maximum information in minimum words

Using an appropriate format for your proposal
-
Developing long-term relationships with your funders
