Writing Winning Grant Applications

There is a big difference between being able to write a grant and winning funding from foundations. In this masterclass, we’ll call out some common missteps and “sacred cows” in grant writing and show you how to win more funding through your applications.

Making a face-to-face ask: How to not make it weird!

No topic inspires greater seat-squirming than that of asking for a gift face-to-face. Many board members, development volunteers, and even seasoned nonprofit professionals simply melt in the face of the single most effective way to win funds for your organization. In this masterclass, we’ll tackle common fundraising fears head-on, arming you with the tools you need to confidently invite support from existing friends and new donors.
