Learn the basics of preparing successful grant proposals from the comfort of your office! Securing grants for your nonprofit organization requires a sound proposal. This workshop is for those who are new to seeking grants as well as those that want to sharpen their intermediate skills through a step-by-step approach to the process.

From developing the proposal idea to completing the details of the budget, this workshop provides an outline to use to prepare clear, concise, comprehensive, and competitive proposals. Participants will be introduced to logic models to help them develop measurable project goals, objectives, and outcomes required in every proposal.
