Helpful Tips on Writing a Successful Grant Application

• Carefully consider the foundation’s guidelines to ensure there is a good fit between your work and their funding criteria.
• Be explicit. Don’t assume the reader is familiar with the issues you address.
• Involve your whole community or organization in the application. Make sure they understand the limits of funding and are supportive of the proposal.
• Provide examples of outcomes and impacts of your work.
• Be succinct AND detailed.
• Be sure to fulfill all stated application requirements.
• Contact a foundation representative if you have any questions about the application process or your eligibility.
