Nonprofits typically depend on grant funding to fulfill their mission. This funding comes from a variety of sources including bilateral donors, multilateral agencies like the United Nations, private philanthropic foundations, corporates, and individuals. Securing a grant indicates that the funder believes firmly in your mission, and your abilities to succeed and impact the lives of your beneficiaries. A donor might require a nonprofit to develop various forms of grant applications to make the case for support including proposals, letters of inquiry, concept notes, amongst others.
The problem is- it has gotten a lot harder to differentiate your nonprofit from the crowd and win the grant! In the US alone, there are over 1.5m NGOs competing for funding from an ever shrinking pool of donors. In Africa, most local nonprofits treat grant writing as an adhoc task that is hurriedly put together by the entire team in the light of a fast approaching deadline. Unfortunately, this results in lower success rates and high rejections for grant proposals.
Travaille Ensemble is on a mission to shift the power by empowering African nonprofits with high-quality grant writing, business development training and donor advisory services to ensure their financial sustainability. In this webinar, Allwell Akhigbe, the Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Travaille Ensemble, will share best practices on developing winning proposals, from his seven years of experience fundraising millions of dollars for international and local nonprofits and social enterprises. This webinar will empower you and your nonprofit with the following outcomes:
- Prepare adequately before the grant application is announced
- Effectively manage the grant writing process
- Develop high-quality grant applications that get funded
- Avoid common grant writing mistakes
- Follow up like a pro in the aftermath of a grant proposal
