Many nonprofit leaders believe when they need more money for their organization, the obvious solution is to start applying for grants. But is that actually the best option for your organization right now? Today we’re exploring what your nonprofit needs have in place before applying for grants. We also talk about:
--How to decide whether you
should write grants yourself, find a volunteer to learn grant
writing, or hire a contracted grant writer
--Which types of grants you should apply
for
--What to expect
after you’ve submitted a grant application
--How to build relationships with
grantors
