This past Spring, I
took your grant writing basics online class. It has been
absolutely invaluable to me. So far, I have heard from 2
grantors that I recently submitted proposals to. Both
were funded! Thank You!!!!
The E.L. Cord
Foundation gave us $25,000 from my final assignment in
your class.

I submitted 3
pre-formatted grant proposals earlier this year for our
“Public Restrooms for the Homeless” and received all
three. I credit your course for the insight it provided.
I enjoyed your course
immensely. Your course has given me the knowledge and
confidence to construct a grant proposal. I am very
grateful, as I have acquired a great deal of information
from your course.

I just wanted to let
you know that I received my first grant of $8,000. Thank
you so much for all the help. I couldn’t have done it
without this class.

I appreciated the
amount of real information versus theoretical that was
provided … also, the flexibility of the online format.
I gained the
confidence and knowledge that I could write a grant if
needed.

What I liked most was
the instructor gave great feedback.
One technique I can
apply now is search for funders whose goals are similar
to my organization.
The biggest benefit I
got out of this class is actually writing a proposal.

I liked that I could
work at my own pace, but I also liked that there was
structure to the course. It made you feel like you were
really accomplishing something as you completed each
assignment.
I learned a lot but
if I had to say just one important thing, I would say
the most important thing is to pay attention to the
funding announcement and comply with all the details.
I believe I am now
ready to write my first grant!

The greatest benefit
was working at my own pace. My schedule varies and is
hectic and I could fit in my course work according to my
ever changing schedule.
The most valuable
lesson(s) learned were the format to be used and to be
thorough but not verbose in my proposal. Know what the
funder is looking for and speak to their needs as much
as your own needs for the grant.

I have been
interested for some time in the Grant Writing process.
It was my wife that encouraged me to take the class.
What I will take away
is having the information that is outlined in the Kiritz
template.

LADC, CPGC

What I will take away
from the class is the actual writing of the grant
proposal and having someone review it with suggestions
on how to improve it.
I now have a clue
about grant writing …

I feel that grant
writers are needed at a greater demand. I wanted to have
a skill that I could provide to my current employer and
this was the perfect medium for me to learn this skill.
I feel that I am more
competent on what is required when writing a grant and
that I am confident that I will be able to help my
employer write grants as needed.

I enjoyed using the
course content to guide me in a real exploration of
potential funding for a personal dream. It kept me
moving my idea forward. If not for the course, I most
likely would have shelved it. I still might, but for
now the dream lives on.
The greatest benefits
were working at my own pace on my own schedule is
paramount in my busy life. I stalled out completely
during my daughters’ basketball finals and picked up on
it again when things settled down.
