Grant Funding – Creating an Effective Plan and Crafting Winning Proposals

Dorothy Bassett, Director of Development at Pleasant Bay Boating, and Heather Kelsey, Director of Advancement at Latham Centers, will outline the essential components of a winning grant proposal. What are foundations and federal and state agencies looking for in a proposal? What makes a project “fundable”?

Topics include researching funding opportunities, building relationships with funders, avoiding mission creep, time management, presenting a sound budget, crafting a compelling narrative, and measuring and reporting impact.
