NCBUSCS018 — Advanced Grantwriting
This detailed, hands-on workshop is intended for the student who is serious about writing "real" grants for a nonprofit. Students must come to class with a favorite nonprofit and an idea about an aspect of the nonprofit's programming for which a grant proposal will be started/developed. Advance communication with the nonprofit and some research about potential grant proposals/RFPs is highly recommended. This student should also be well-versed in the nonprofit's mission and programming, and have some ability to obtain some financial data to develop the project budget. Federal, state, and foundation grants will be discussed. The instructor will be discussing grant details, both as they apply to all grants and to each student's grant. The class will be held in a computer lab and part of the class will be individual writing and research, with instructor guidance. Homework will be required to pass the course. Enrollment will be limited. Textbook required. Available in college bookstore.
