This practical, real-world guide is for nonprofit leaders, volunteers, and aspiring grant writers who want to secure funding and successfully deliver projects. Drawing on more than three decades of nonprofit and grant-writing experience, Susan Warner walks readers through every stage of the process—from identifying community needs and finding the right funders to developing winning proposals, managing grant-funded projects, and completing successful closeouts. More than just a book about writing grants, it is a roadmap for turning ideas into funded projects that create lasting community impact.
