Grant Writing for Nonprofits: REAL Application Walk-Through (Dreyfus Foundation)

Grant writing for a nonprofit organization? In this video I show how I’d approach a real grant application for a nonprofit. #Nonprofits #Grants #Nonprofit

Whether you’re starting a nonprofit organization or fundraising for an existing nonprofit, grants are one of many options for funding or expanding special project or program. Still, writing grants can be tough and confusing! I’ve written over 100 grants throughout my nonprofit work - won some and lost some, and learned a lot about how to write grants along the way.

In this video I show how I’d approach writing a grant proposal for the Max & Victoria Dreyfus Foundation.

I hope this helps as you undertake nonprofit fundraising!
