FUNDamentals!
Free Grant Writing Workshops
Available in November and December
The Foundation Center, a regional library located in Atlanta, GA, offers excellent training. Many basic classes are free. Some of these classes also are available in Spanish.
Webinars, again, many are free, are available for those who cannot get to the Foundation Center.
Multiple languages, too! A Proposal Writing Short Course describes how to prepare a funding proposal, including the planning, research, and cultivation of foundation and corporate donors. (Available in English, French, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish.)
For other training opportunities, ask your congressional representatives (House and Senate) to put you on the mailing list whenever grant writing training is offered in Georgia, especially in your area. This training is almost always free, and it is always helpful, but registration is required and seats are usually limited.
Also, be sure to check out Foundations for the Future (F3). Subscribe (free) to the F3 Funding Forecast.
