How to Write a 2-Page Grant Proposal

Welcome to the Course!

Starting a nonprofit organization is a major decision that requires an investment of time and resources. This course was written to help small nonprofits position their organization for funding by preparing a 2-page grant proposal that you can use multiple times.

About this Course

“How to Write a 2-Page Grant Proposal” is a product of more than 25 years of experience in the nonprofit sector and over 10 years successfully writing grants. This course highlights what nonprofit leaders can do at a very basic level, to write a compelling letter that potential funders will want to read. Many nonprofit founders are not grant-writers or technical writers for that matter. Instead, I find nonprofit founders to be people with "Big-Amazing-Hearts" for balancing societal norms. I’ve written this course to help those of you who are wanting to apply for grants using a letter of inquiry, but unsure how. This is my small way of saying “thank you” for all that you do (or plan to do) to make our world better! ?

This course seeks to equip nonprofit founders and leaders, and anyone else with an interest in funding a nonprofit public charity, with strategies and techniques to do just that – using a letter of inquiry. At the conclusion of this course, it is my sincere hope that you feel inspired to apply for grants and lead the organization that you’ve always dreamed that you would one day lead. You have everything it takes to succeed. This course is just your reminder!

Who this course is for:

This course is for U.S. nonprofit Founders, Executive Directors, Board Members, Staff of Nonprofits, Volunteers of Nonprofits, Funders, and others with an interest in U.S. nonprofit funding. This material would be helpful for nonprofit organizations located outside of the U.S. However, it would not be helpful for a person exclusively looking for guidance for a for-profit business.
