Workshops

Grant Readiness Boot Camp

Three Sessions | Nine Hours

Born of our flagship seminar developed in 2018, our Grant Readiness Boot Camp is designed to get your nonprofit grant ready. Get ready to:

  • develop your messaging, including an outline of a general operating proposal narrative

  • take a deep dive into the list of the most common required attachments

  • work through strategies and resources for prospect research and project management

You’ll leave this workshop series with a “readiness” score based on common panel review criteria and an action plan for how to tackle that first proposal.

We’re proud to share that multiple clients have garnered first-time grant awards from this series.
