Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

We are looking for assistance in finding and completing grant applications that support our mission and vision statement.

We believe this project will include:

  • Assist with defining a company-identified community problem and defining the scope of a corresponding project.
  • Develop a needs statement that characterizes the community problem and justifies the need for our project and funding.
  • Identify potential sponsors and funding opportunities that are a good fit for our organization and project.
  • Interpret a request for proposal (RFP).
  • Improve the clarity and persuasiveness of our company's grant proposal writing.
  • Identify platforms that are a good fit for our organization and project to obtain funding.
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
  • Research, plan, write, edit, and revise a persuasive proposal narrative; or
  • Research into other grant opportunities to support our cause
  • Collect information on prospective grant opportunities on platforms like open grants, pocketed etc.
How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will connect directly with the founder for mentorship and supervision throughout the project, via team Slack page.
