There is a lot of great information in the article about grants. Working with smaller nonprofits here are a few notes I wish to state: 1. Most smaller nonprofits cannot even apply to receive MacKenzie Scott's donations. While what she does is great for philanthropy and more people of wealth should be doing the same, her donations primarily go to already established organization with a history of providing strong programs. 2. When applying for grants (especially those governmental grants) you need to consider the amount of reporting and documentation needed. Since many of these are reimbursable grants you better have reserves while waiting for that money to arrive. 3. With limited resources, many smaller organizations really need to focus on just a few grants because they cannot afford a full time grant writer and writing grants does take a lot of time. Better make sure your programs are already making a big impact and have other sources in case that grant ends. Thanks for providing this information Brieanna Quinn, MA. I think many nonprofits can certainly use the tips. #nonprofits #nonprofitorganization #nonprofit #grantwriting #grants
