We believe this project will include:

  • Assist with defining a company-identified community problem and finding grants and community projects to tackle it.
  • 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.
  • Communicate with internal and external stakeholders regarding funding.
  • Improve the clarity and persuasiveness of our company's grant proposal writing.


Deliverables include presenting findings and grants applications

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
  • Research potential corporate sponsors who work with nonprofit organizations to secure funding; or
  • Research, plan, write, edit, and revise a persuasive proposal narrative; or
  • Research into other grant opportunities to support our cause;
  • Edit and provide feedback with existing grant writing proposals.
