Comprehensive Grant Writing Seminar
This seminar is aimed toward professionals that work with populations in need, agencies in need of more funding to do something positive or greater projects, capacity building, those needing networking/partnership building, and those who are beginning new non-profit organizations.
You will experience a high-energy training that will be full of amazing tools, real-life applicable examples and experiences that will make you a strong grant writer. You should NOT have to pay thousands of dollars to “grant writers” who can’t the get job done, who can’t guarantee their work, and who disappoint you. You will be able to write grants yourself. Most seminars of this magnitude average $1,000 across the country, but not for you. The cost of this training is $125 per person. At the conclusion of this seminar you will feel prepared and equipped! We look forward to seeing you there!
