Before You Seek a Grant: A Checklist for New Nonprofits

This course is geared towards representatives of community groups without nonprofit status or new nonprofits with very little experience in grantseeking in general. We focus specifically on foundation fundraising.

Free
90 minutes

The course will address such questions as:

• What groundwork do I have to have in place before approaching foundations for funding?
• What are the steps to obtaining incorporation and nonprofit status and where can I get some help to do so?
• What are the characteristics of successful nonprofits?

This free session will provide you with a step-by-step checklist approach to help you determine your own readiness for foundation fundraising. Advance registration is required.
