Proposal Budgeting Basics

Independence, OH

10:00 - 11:30am and 11:30am - 12:30pm

Join us for two classes at our new Cooperating Collection in Independence

Proposal Writing Basics
If you are a nonprofit representative new to proposal writing, you may be wondering:

  • What are the key components of a proposal to a foundation or corporation?
  • Who should sign a grant request?
  • How should the proposal be packaged?
  • Should you contact a funder if your proposal is turned down?
  • Where can you find more information on proposal writing, including sample proposals?

Proposal Writing Basics, an introductory overview of the process for new proposal writers, will give you some answers!

Proposal Budgeting Basics
This free training session geared to the novice grantseeker will cover such topics as:

  • What kinds of expenses are covered under "personnel"?
  • What level of detail do you need to include for non-personnel expenses?
  • How do you determine an overall amount that is neither too high nor too low in relation to what you expect to accomplish?
  • What is the relationship between the budget for your project and the overall budget for your nonprofit organization?
  • What kinds of expenses should be included on the "overhead" line?

Proposal Budgeting Basics will answer these and related questions.
