Toolkit Overview:

Writing grants is an important part of most not-for-profit organizations’ and project life cycles. We need resources to run and we need grants to have resources. Grant writing has become a major part of community and social work but many of us still struggle with it.

This toolkit lays out strategy for writing grants; the toolkit is focused on how you engage your grant idea community and participants, how you develop ideas into programs, and how you select the best funders and funding programs for you.

Learning Objectives:

• To provide knowledge and insight about the grant-writing process
• To provide support and guidance in developing a grant-writing process for your organization
• To identify and understand how funders and donors work.
