Product Description
Grant-writing seems quite straightforward to people who don't need a grant, but very difficult to the people who are desperate for funding especially in this post-9/11 environment of massive budget cuts and urgent needs. The Only Grant-Writing Book You'll Ever Need: An Insider's Guide, written by two authors who have won millions of dollars in grants, provides a comprehensive step-by-step guide for grant writers, de-mystifying the process while offering indispensable advice from funders. This book teaches how to figure out what a grantmaker really wants, and how to make the most effective pitch. It is for everyone seeking grants for non-profit organizations, municipal, county, and state governments, school superintendents, principals, teachers, and boards of education, and people seeking funds for scholarly and cultural projects. The Only Grant-Writing Book You'll Ever Need includes the following: A glossary of terms with just about any word, phrase, or concept a grant writer may need, plus fifty tips for writing a winning proposal;
Guidance on developing a realistic, cost-effective, collaborative program;
Concrete suggestions (with practice exercises and examples) for approaching each section of a grant so that the proposal is absolutely clear to the funder.

This is the very best publication for grant writing I have ever read. It gives you common sense and practical advice and explains what the grantors are thinking. If you want your proposals to have merit, please read this to be far ahead of the rest of the crowd.

I'm studying grant writing and have been picking up all these grant writing books. By far, this was the easiest for me to delve into. I thought that odd as I expected the Idiot's and Dummy's guides to be easier and quicker, but the narrative in this book is a pleasant read and the grant writing process just makes so much sense the way the authors present the information. Good job!
