Non-Profit Roundtable: What Funders Look for in Your Grant Application

Applying for grants comes with a lot of questions.

What are funders looking for?
How much information should I include?
What makes an application easier to understand?
How can I avoid elimination?
What can cause a strong idea to get lost in the review process?

Join Stefani McAuliffe, vice president of community impact at The Foundation for Enhancing Communities (TFEC), for a practical look at grant applications from the funder’s side of the table. Stef will share how reviewers approach applications, what helps them understand the need and proposed work and how nonprofits can make a stronger case for the impact they hope to create.

Whether you are new to grant applications or looking to strengthen your approach, this session will offer practical guidance you can use the next time you apply for funding.
