From the Author

Having raised funds through grants for a wide variety of organizations and taught grant writing to employees and volunteers of an even wider range of charities, I've seen how learning even the basics of grant writing can turn someone's passion for a cause into action. 
In writing this book, I sought to demystify the grant-making process and empower people who are passionate about a cause to raise more funds. You can be the greatest advocate for your cause if you learn the tools of the trade and how to write persuasively.
