10 Essential Rules for Grant Writing
Here are the key questions to ask yourself "on day one" of writing your proposal.
- Do I know what the funder is really buying in the market place?
- What change do they want?
- Next do I have a clear picture in mind of the change I want to make?
- Finally does my picture of success match the funder's picture?
is it fighting racism, increasing literacry rates in poor areas, or supporting artists?
Less discrimination in the workplace, higher reading rates or new emerging artists?
What does success look like to me?
