Webinar Series: Strategies for Grantseeking Success
Grantseeking is most successful when it is strategically done: when it supports your vision and goals, when it is planned in advance, and when it is grounded in solid relationships. What are the best ways to make this happen?

In April 2012, the Grant Center launched a professional development series of six webinars on the grantseeking process. Webinars address topics including:

  • Defining the Work.
  • Planning for Impact.
  • Identifying Potential Funders.
  • Establishing Strong Relationships with Foundations.
  • Creating a Successful Proposal.
  • Building for the Future.

Be sure to access our professional development page for more on session details, information on presenters and additional resources.
