This is not another how-to-write-a-grant-proposal book. Unlike those books, Getting Grants argues that no matter what type of organization, there is a direct relationship between the organization's internal proposal development process and how successful the organization is at securing grant funding. Existing books focus solely on writing grant applications. Getting Grants deals with every step of the process: how and where to find sources of funding; The pre-proposal planning and development stage; The completion of a grant proposal; The role of the grant writer and/or grants office in an organization; The role of the project director in the grants process; How to tailor the proposal and the budget to the funder; How to nurture relationships with grant partner organizations; Getting Grants includes a CD-ROM with forms and checklists in MS Word format. Use these forms in grants administration, as well as links to other valuable resources.

Getting Grants,
By
This review is from: Getting Grants (Paperback)
This book presents an overview of all the processes of applying for a grant and receiving a grant. The book is intended for higher education institutions but is helpful for all agencies involved with grantsmanship. It is written in simple terms and is very clear and helpful for the advanced grantsman as well as the novice. It is a must for a quick and thorough reference!
