Course Description
This comprehensive, roll-up-your-sleeves fundraising series will build on the private sector proposal writing you already do and give you tangible, practical ways to increase your competitiveness in this time of tight budgets.  One-on-one consultations by phone and/or email with the instructor will be available between sessions.  Upon completion, students will have a stronger, more compelling model proposal and package (including the budget, and relevant attachments), and understand how to cultivate long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with targeted funders.  Participants should bring a copy of a proposal on which they are currently working.
