ith Funders: What Grantmakers Want Every Grantseeker to Know...Before Subm
itting a Proposal!\n\nMake no mistake about it: Grantseeking is a peop
le-driven process. And key to your success is the grantmakers themselves -
the people who make the decisions about awards from corporate\, foundatio
n\, and government sources. But who are these people? How do we connect wi
th them? And what do they want from us\, anyway?\n\nBeing a grantmaker isn

e “Four Keys to Persuasive Proposals” – and how each connects with the rea
der’s own personal sense of purpose\n• Through a role-play exercise\, lear
n by first-hand experience how a proposal makes a good or bad first impres
sion in just a few seconds – and why\n• Learn about the three Powerhouse P
roposal Sections that must pull their own weight - and then some! - for yo
ur proposal to work\n• Understand the principle of limited mental energy a
nd how it applies to the choices we make in crafting our proposals\n\n<
i>Sessions will be recorded and the recordings will be made available to a
ll registered participants. Participants who are unable to attend one or m
ore of the sessions will still have access to all course materials.\n\nAbout the Presenter\nOver her 25+-year nonprofit career\, Mary
