SECURING FUNDING FOR YOUR WORLD CHANGING CREATIVE PROJECT
One of the most difficult aspects of doing CREATIVE WORK FOR THE
SOCIAL GOOD IS IDENTIFYING FUNDING SOURCES. Filmmaker Lisa Russell
who has developed a career as a working filmmaker will share her
insights on how to secure FUNDING FOR YOUR PROJECT - whether its your
first or your 50th. She will share the steps a CREATIVE ADVOCATE
NEEDS TO TAKE TO SUBMIT PROJECTS FOR UN FUNDING, how to present a well
drafted proposal and a special treat - she will give each participant
a copy of an Request for Proposal she won...along with her winning
proposal and budget. You will walk away with more resources about
FUNDING THAN YOU COULD READ IN A BOOK OR ON A BLOG.
