About this title

Synopsis

Grantsmanship: Program Planning & Proposal Writing, 2nd ed. is the latest version of the publication that rocked philanthropy in 1972 & remains the brightest beacon of best practices. With over 1 million copies sold, used in 43 countries, published in 4 languages and christened as the "grantseekers' Bible" by the New York Times, the original, Program Planning & Proposal Writing, established the 8-part proposal model-still the world's most successful and widely-used grant format.

The Grantsmanship Center model has stood the test of nearly 50 years. And while praised, cherished, copied, and even plagiarized, it's never been replaced or matched. It remains the lodestar for both grantseekers & grantmakers. This edition delivers the vision, voice, and core concepts of the original, augmented with the latest developments in the field. It's hailed by nonprofit, foundation, and government leaders as: "an indispensable resource," "rocket fuel for great program planning and proposal writing," "ethical, easy to understand, and shot through with optimism," "worth its weight in gold," "fantastic," "a seminal guide," and more.

Loaded with clear, how-to instructions and concrete examples, it lays out best-practices for planning programs and getting them funded. The book's cogent logic is easy to follow, setting novice grantseekers on the right track while boosting experienced professionals to a higher level. Readers get clear-cut directions for successful grant requests plus:

• Checklists, expanded and updated from the beloved original
• Tools for translating funders’ sometimes contradictory terminology
• Advice for avoiding common and dangerous pitfalls
• Guidance on preparing project-based proposals as well as requests for: operations, prevention, arts & culture, capital expenditures, and more.
