Seattle Grantwriting Class – Sept 11th and 12th

Nothing worth doing is easy. My daughter just set off on a week-long camping and rock-climbing adventure with a group of girls through the YMCA. I have to admit that I am a little envious. She has a mountain to climb and an experienced guide to get her there.

Writing a grant proposal is a journey. There are common pitfalls along the way. There are turns that are easy to miss. And you must get to the top of the mountain and take in the whole view before your journey is over.

Let me be your guide. Spark the Fire Grantwriting Classes provides the map, the tools, and most importantly, an experienced guide to lead you on your journey of grantwriting. I’ll be there every step of the way to answer your questions as they come up. I will help you think through your goals, objectives, and evaluation plan, and be there to read your first drafts to make sure you’re on the right track. Start your journey this September.
