GRANT WRITING TIP

Be a storyteller – Be true to your organizational mission and keep in mind your audience.  How will your story resonate with their foundation?

Be authentic – Share with the review committee who you are, what you do and what you need.

Be real – Most funders want to know how you will sustain the plan, measure its impact and grow it for the future.
