Question 1 of 22

Your Organization

Question 2 of 22

Describe what your organization does in one high-impact sentence? Here is a compelling template to follow: We help [who you serve] achieve [tangible transformation] so they can [overcome a challenge/pain]. For example, “Meals for Kids helps K-12 students depending on free or reduced lunch to have nutritious and reliable meals over the weekend and breaks without having to fend for themselves until school begins again."

Project Development

Layout the details of your work

Question 4 of 22

What problem are you solving with this project? Funders want their investment in you to solve real problems in the world. Connect what you are doing with a specific problem.

Question 5 of 22

Who will you collaborate with? Think about what other types of organizations you can partner with.

 

Project Plan

Timing and deliverables 

Question 7 of 22

How do you plan to implement your project or program? It is okay to bullet point your implementation plan, but describe each step in as much detail you can.

 

Question 8 of 22

How can your project or program impact be measured? Think about what you can do to measure before/after success and how you will communicate that to the funder.

 

Question 9 of 22

How can you demonstrate program sustainability? Grants should not make up more than 40% of your funding (and ideally more like 20%). Funders don't typically want to fund operational costs, so it is important to figure out how you will continue operating in the future without them.

 

Your Team

Who is on your team?

Question 11 of 22

Strive to put together an A-team on all your projects. If you do not have the capability in-house, then find it externally and partner up.
