Synopsis

Write grants that get funded―and make a lasting impact.

Feeling overwhelmed by the grant writing process? Unsure where to start or why your proposals aren't landing? Whether you're new to nonprofit work or looking to sharpen your funding strategy, The Complete Book of Grant Writing, 2nd Edition gives you the tools, structure, and real-world insight to succeed.

Coauthored by a professional grant writer and a grant maker, this guide helps you understand both sides of the funding process so you can craft clear, persuasive proposals and avoid costly mistakes. With 20 full-length samples, a proven five-part structure, and guidance tailored to education, health, environment, and faith-based sectors, this is the go-to resource for nonprofit professionals, educators, and aspiring grant writers alike.

Unlike overly academic texts, this guide delivers actionable, step-by-step advice tailored for busy professionals who need practical results, not theory.

Whether you're seeking funding for a classroom, clinic, startup nonprofit, or community program, this book helps you move from uncertainty to success - proposal by proposal.
