Description:

Grant writing is an important process for cultural heritage organizations, but often those tasked with the job are not given the tools they need to succeed. This workshop will guide participants through the essential elements of the grant writing process. This session is a great place to start for those feeling under-equipped for beginning to write and submit grant proposals. Together we'll discuss the key elements of a grant proposal, helpful resources for tailoring your submission for the most impact, and how to make your process more organized and less stressful.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this class, students will be able to:

Describe the essential elements of a grant proposal
Identify the Seven Faces of Philanthropy
Organize and streamline their grant writing process
