Getting to the Grant$: I'm Prepared to Receive Grants PT 1

ONLINE WEBINAR

Course Description

You've got the mission. You've got the vision. Maybe you've even started applying. But the grant money still isn't coming, and nobody has told you exactly why.

The Getting to the Grant$: I'm Prepared to Receive webinar series is a 2-part grant readiness experience designed to guide Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Faith-Based Organizations through what it actually takes to position your organization for funding success. This is Part 1 of 2.

Part 1: You're Doing the Work. So Why Aren't You Getting Funded? Building the Foundation Funders Are Looking For

Here's the truth most trainings skip: grants aren't just about writing. They're about being ready before you write a single word. In this 120-minute interactive session, we pull back the curtain on what funders actually look at when they review an application, and why organizations doing great work in their communities are still getting passed over.

You'll walk away knowing:

• What grant readiness actually means and how to know if you have it
• The foundational documents, systems, and structures funders expect to see before they say yes
• Why your organizational structure affects your eligibility for certain funding sources
• How to stop chasing misaligned grants and start pursuing the ones built for you
• The mindset shifts that separate organizations that win funding from those that keep waiting

Outcome: You'll leave with a clearer picture of where your gaps are, what to fix first, and how to show up to funders with confidence instead of hope.

Class Instructor - Guy Holley founder of Access GRANT-Ed and a second-generation grant strategist leading a team that has collectively designed community initiatives and secured over $1 billion in grant funding across 45+ years of work.
