to hold two-day
Workshop
On October 17 and 18 the Town Hall in Washington, Virginia will be the site for a Two-day Grant Writing Workshop hosted by The Rappahannock Nonprofit Center. Participants will learn how to write and review winning proposals including the essential components of a grant proposal package, how to customize a proposal to match a grant maker’s interest, how to initially approach a funder, the differences between government and foundation proposals, how to report on a grant’s progress and impact, how to develop working relationships with grant makers, what to do if your proposal is denied and the behind-the-scenes decisions that determine proposal acceptance and denial. Participants will also learn how to find and track relevant grant opportunities, where to find foundation grant programs that can help you accomplish your goals, where to find federal and state grant makers that meet your needs, where to find corporate giving programs whose giving goals match your funding needs, and how to stay on top of your targeted opportunities. The fee for the two day workshop is $349 per person and includes all necessary materials - class workbook, a 200+MB resource CD, and one year of support from Grant Writing USA through their Alumni Support Forums.
