After the Grant: The Nonprofit's Guide to Good Stewardship

Congratulations on getting that grant you worked so hard for! Now what? Just released, the Foundation Center's After the Grant is the only book of its kind written on the topic of what should happen after a grant is awarded. It addresses each step in the grant cycle, from the award letter to meetings with funders to securing the renewal. In it, veteran fundraisers and foundation executives offer critical insights from both sides of the grantor-grantee equation on how grant recipients can best manage, communicate, and report on funded programs, cementing their relationship with funders.
