CASE STATEMENT ADVANTAGE

The first step for any successful fundraising effort is to develop the case statement, the primary tool for an agency to use to effectively tell its story when writing grant proposals, marketing materials, and donor communications. This session will introduce participants to the purpose and benefits of a case statement and instruct on the format and components of successful case statements. You’ll leave with numerous ideas and an outline to follow as you develop your own case for support. 

INTRODUCTION TO GRANTS RESEARCH

Get the answers to those myriad questions you have about the process of finding funders: What are the best sources to use to search out grantors? How do I find local grantors? How do you know if a funder is a good fit for your nonprofit? Which foundations are funding the agencies and programs similar to yours? How do you decide what to ask for? Should you go after every grant opportunity you find? How do you keep track of it all? You’ll walk away from this session with a wealth of information that will help make your grant research well worth the effort.
