This is a transformative moment for nonprofits. Amid challenges like Hurricane Helene’s aftermath, shifts in federal funding, and changes to DEI initiatives, nonprofits in Western North Carolina have a unique opportunity to strengthen their impact and secure resources for recovery and growth. Grant funding is critical now more than ever to advance your mission and ensure lasting success.

Grant Writing 101 provides a solid foundation for writing successful grant proposals. Whether you’re new or looking to refine your skills, this course will equip you with the tools to craft compelling applications, find aligned funders, build strong narratives, create project budgets, and demonstrate measurable impact. We’ll also explore the use of AI in the proposal process.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have the skills to create persuasive proposals that communicate your project’s value and potential impact. This class is taught by Simone Adams.
