The guy on the late-night television commercial that there is millions of dollars of grants that go unclaimed each year because no one applies. How can I apply for some of this money?
A Don’t believe everything you hear in infomercials! There is no huge pool of grant money available just for the asking. Grants are not about getting money – they are about change. You are requesting an opportunity to fill a need, fix a problem and bring about change. There are instances where a funder does not distribute all of its grant money because there weren’t enough applications submitted that were complete and worthy of funding, but this is very rare. Following the tips and instructions in this manual will help you minimize the chances that this will happen to your proposal.
