I am so thankful to have found your channel. As the founder of a nonprofit for 20+ years, I know how important grant writing is. We were forced to temporarily close during the pandemic which was devastating and I haven't been able to begin again. I pulled myself together and applied for a grant writing program via my alma mater, San Diego state and got accepted. The course starts next month, I am so excited. In hindsight, the "hiatus" my nonprofit has been on has been a blessing. It's given me time to evaluate, regroup and prioritize so that when we start up again we'll be better prepared. I wrote a business plan for a program that will generate cash flow so we aren't in the red all the time. Aside from writing grants for my nonprofit, my plan is to write grants for nonprofits I am passionate about ..... animal rescue, environment and women's causes (mostly). I'm going to binge watch your videos to better prepare for the course next month. Very excited for this BOLD new chapter.

Hi there! This is something we coach in the Collective program. Award announcements depend on the grant you apply for. If it's a federal grant, you should receive a submission email with your application number and steps to check on the status of your application.

In mid 2023, I was asked by a nonprofit org to write some grants for them. In less than one year I won them over $800,000…3’ out of 4 proposals that I submitted were funded. I was never a grant writer but I worked as a grants and contract administrator for 9 years, so I have a lot of experience with those types of documents. My background is in nonprofit and public funded programs. I have a master’s degree in Public Administration.

Sorry to say this feels really overedited and hard to stay engaged with. Too many cuts and zooms and sound effects. I had to stop after a couple min 😞 I'd argue that most people drawn to this subject probably don't need Tiktok-ified effects. And they are better suited to short-form content anyway, not longer videos. I would love to see more content but toned down a bit 😭

Why should someone pay a grant writer upfront when the grant seeker does not know if the writer will perform and result in a grant for the grant seeker?
@LearnGrantWriting
@LearnGrantWriting Ай бұрын
A fair question and a good reason to take things step-by-step with a grant consultant. Consider asking questions about their background and experience. Have a discovery call to see if it feels right. Just remember that, par the industry, there is no 100% guarantee when you're going after grants. Therefore you're aiming for the the highest likelihood of success and someone (either within your organization or as an outside consultant) to guide you through the process (from outreach to hitting submit) that knows what they're doing. You're paying for expertise to get you the best result. You're not paying for a guaranteed win because it's an unrealistic standard in the grant world. Does that make sense?

There are all kinds of grants out there, though grant funding for individuals (i.e. flight school) aren't as common. You'd probably want to start with financial aid / scholarships through your school first if you're looking for individual funding. Though you can search on the grants.gov site using your keywords to see what comes up as a next step.
