@dhleonardgrants Diane is knocking it out of the park in her @GPANational webinar on partnerships for grants. Don’t miss your chance to learn from her at #gpaconference 2018.
@Grant_Chat A10: Links to agency-specific formatting requirements for narratives a la NSF versus Ed versus DOJ. Often these are not in the FOA but covered by a proposal writing guide (like for NSF). #grantchat
Looking forward to learning from Aggie Sweeney @campbellcompany+ Rachel Earl, CDO, St. Labray Indian School + @AlexDanielsCOP about basics of DAFs today at 2ET in @philanthropy#philwebinar https://t.co/AhzecyCOCA
A10b: Also to explain why each item is needed, why your cost estimates are accurate, and why costs are reasonable. (Feds usually ask all 3.) #grantchat
A10a: Link budget to story of proposal and tie into a neat bow. Anticipate potential reviewer questions about confusing costs and answer them.#grantchat
A9: Use historical data. Ask finance for projections, esp. re: fringe benefits. Include COLA for staff. Think about what program needs in each year (may vary). #grantchat
A8b: May not be one, per se. Place ask in context of annual fundraising goal and/or total operational budget. Describe other sources of revenue or how you will reach goal. #grantchat
