Description: If you are wondering if you should take this masterclass on grant writing, just consider the top-six reasons that funders give for rejecting grant proposals.Misalignment with Funder Priorities. Proposals fail because the project doesn't align closely with the funder’s mission, strategy, or desired impact, even if the proposal is well-written.Lack of Compelling Evidence. Successful proposals must demonstrate need, impact and effectiveness using data, case studies and evaluation plans. Many nonprofits don’t know how to gather this evidence, or they present it poorly.Weak Statement of Need or Solution. A vague or poorly defined problem, or a solution that seems unrealistic, unfocused or unsustainable, quickly disqualifies your proposal.Budget Issues. When your budget doesn’t align with your narrative, when it lacks detail, when it seems padded or unrealistic, you sink an otherwise great proposal.Number five: Poor Writing and Organization. Funders read dozens, even hundreds, of grant proposals. If your proposal is hard to follow, lacks clarity, or is riddled with jargon or typos, funders will set aside and refuse to fund your project.Failure to Follow Instructions: Missing required documents, ignoring word limits, or using the wrong format, results in automatic rejection, regardless of how well your proposal is written.These six reasons are the bad news. But the good news is that you can learn to write grant proposals that get funded.Alan Sharpe's Grant Writing Masterclass is the masterclass for aspiring grant writers. It’s your step-by-step guide to crafting grant proposals that stand out, speak to funders, and secure the support your nonprofit needs to grow.The course is based on my book of the same name.
