Tuesday, September 14th
12-1pm and 6-7:30pm
Burroughs-Saden Branch
Every funder asks for goals and objectives. They form the backbone of your proposal and yet they can be the most difficult puzzle to decipher. This interactive workshop will examine the difference between goals and objectives, will help you in writing measureable objectives and will guide you in the writing of winning grant proposals. Presenter Rebekah Harriman again brings us her knowledge of grant writing and nonprofit fundraising in what should be a relaxed and very informative session. Second floor, Anthony Ball Nonprofit Resource Center.
