Udemy Grant Writing for Nonprofits and Freelance Writers Udemy
Price: USD 25

    Course details

    This course is designed for nonprofits that want to not only get better at writing successful proposals, but also get better at the process of researching and applying for foundation and government grants. The course is also for grant writers or freelance writers who want to offer their clients a more comprehensive approach to grant writing.

    When you're done with the course, you'll have assembled one of the most powerful tools a nonprofit can have - a proposal boilerplate.

    The boilerplate contains about 75% of the language you'll need as you're drafting proposals. Working on the boilerplate outside the pressure of a proposal deadline will result in language that is better-written, as well as more thoughtful and strategic. It will also set you up to be uber-efficient as you're writing proposals in the future.

    Throughout this course we'll be using real examples and real language, and each lesson includes a transcript, so you can kickstart your own boilerplate.

    You'll also be given strategies and tips for finding foundation and government grants, including:

    • Identifying five relevant local foundations
    • Gathering information about grants at the local, state, and federal level for you to start pursuing

    Finally, we'll be walking through key strategies for completing solid applications, including:

    • Letters of intent
    • The budget
    • Meeting a funder's expectations

    Each video session includes two downloads: a PDF of the slides in handout format, and a Word document transcript.
