CORPORATIONS AND FOUNDATIONS

All fundraising stems from solid relationships. In this fun and lively
workshop you will learn how to research, identify, and engage private
corporate and foundation “friends,” and get tips and tricks for
writing a compelling and competitive grant. This hands-on, half day

relations and grant writing. Additionally, participants will learn
about:
* Trends in corporate and foundation philanthropy, the various kinds
of foundations, and unique approaches for reaching each of them.
* Research and identification of prospective funders via the
internet and other resources (“who should I ask for what?”).
* Building relationships with corporations and foundations and
engaging funders in your organization’s mission.
* Developing the program narrative in a way that highlights the most
important elements from the funder’s perspective, including language
and formatting.
* Accurate and timely reporting.
* The basics of the grant writing process.
