The Martha’s Vineyard Nonprofit Collaborative Invites You To

BECOME A GRANTS WIZARD

Whether you are just beginning to search for grants, or simply wish to brush up your skills, this comprehensive and entertaining event will help you to:

  • Gain awareness about, and actually begin, the grant writing process
  • Learn about how foundations assess grant applications and how best to make your case to them.  (Includes presentations from local funders.)
  • Understand where a grants program fits into your organization’s work and budget
  • Gain awareness about the grant research process, including what is available in our Nonprofit Resource Center in partnership with the Oak Bluffs Public Library
  • Learn how to use GrantWatch, a database of available Government and Foundation grants,
  • Start your own hands on search in GrantWatch.

About our facilitator:

KATHIE OLSEN is a nonprofit leader, teacher, facilitator, public speaker, and collaborative community spirit.  Olsen has spent the last thirteen years working as a program officer for the Cow Creek Umpqua Indian Foundation, reviewing 60-70 grant applications per year.  Other experience with non-profits includes service on eight non-profit Boards of Directors, and service as Executive Director for four.  She has raised over $2 million for non-profit organizations, utilizing the full breadth of the fund development spectrum (including grant writing, special events, major donor campaigns, and annual fund appeals).  As a consultant, she provides triage and guidance to nonprofits on-island and nationally.  She lives in Aquinnah.

Please respond no later than February 5th. 

This workshop is made possible thanks to a grant from the
Peter and Elizabeth C. Tower Foundation.
