About
Giving by foundations increased 2.5 percent to an estimated $75.69 billion in 2019, reaching its highest-ever dollar amount, according to the Giving USA 2020 report. How can you benefit from this trend?
Grants should only be one part of your funding plans, but they can be well worth the time commitment required, if cultivated correctly. Often grants, especially matching grants, can help leverage your hard work to increase sustainability. This makes matching grants an ideal funding stream for long-term growth. While much of the process is the same, matching grants do require a bit more preparation than a traditional proposal.
Talking to foundation staff can be scary and overwhelming, it is a vital piece of successful grant writing. How do you empower foundation donors to donate more AND become advocates for your cause? In this webinar, we’ll cover how to communicate with donors that their immediate support lays the foundation for long-term sustainability and success.
