INFORMATION ABOUT IN-KIND OR NON-CASH GIVINGThere seems to be a tendency to limit efforts in developing nonprofit resources to M-O-N-E-Y. As understandable as this might be, it’s a mistake.
For one thing, businesses might be more easily induced to consider non-cash support, since this allows for good corporate citizenship without having to shell out hard-earned cash.

RESOURCES FOR THE INDIVIDUAL GRANTSEEKERSo far, our primary focus in this handbook has been grantseeking by nonprofit organizations. Most of the resources discussed herein are aimed at nonprofit organizations, because most of the money available from funders goes to such organizations.
All is not lost, however, for ye of solitary persuasions. There are lots of resources targeted at support for individual pursuits, especially educational pursuits. In fact, if you are looking for scholarships or fellowships or educational grants, you’d probably do better going to a college or university admissions office, placement office or library. |

The process of funding may appear at times arbitrary, even capricious. In any event, it is indeed a human one. This suggests that there may be a number of aspects to grantmaking and grantseeking beyond submitting written proposals. As true as your experience may demonstrate this to be, a written proposal is usually essential, especially if you visualize it as a plan of action. |
