A Bit About Grants

For my final project in this class, I'm writing a grant proposal. I have 2 separate ones underway for 2 different projects and am having trouble finding grants that will cover the entire cost of each project. So, I've decided to select multiple places to submit and hope to get the whole thing funded this way. I've also decided to team up with a staff member of a non-profit org that I am associated with and tack on some of my funding needs to a grant she is submitting for a similar project. I've had to do this before so fingers crossed it works out this time!

Also, I'm sending out a cheer to Ed at work who has generously allowed me to use his internet connection this week so that I can search for grants. Typically on Wed-Sun. nights I do not have internet or phone so this is a real treat! :)

  1. Cool Beans Amanda. My capestone (at this time) is a grant proposal and I'm having a tough time finding an appropriate grant. I'm also working with a non-profit with their own internal red tape! But, I will endeavor to persevere!

    Glad to hear you will on Internet connectivity :-)
