Grant proposals are an important part of the quiet phase of capital campaigns, but if you aren’t experienced in writing for a capital campaign, there are a lot of questions you may want to ask a grant professional:
  • How do you decide which funders to approach and when?
  • Should you cannibalize your current funders?
  • How do you write outcomes for capital campaigns?
  • Do you write about raising the money, the building of the building, or the programs that are happening in the building? Is the answer all three? 
What You'll Learn: 
  • How grants fit in with the overall capital campaign pyramid and timeline.
  • How to strategize which funders to approach, and when in the campaign is the best time to approach them.  
  • How to build a case statement that evolves over time as the groundbreaking draws near.  
  • How to describe capital expenditures as budget details goes from scarce to detailed. 
  • How to answer questions about the capital campaign, construction, and program outcomes. 
  • What contractual services are the most commonly available to support the grant portion of capital campaigns.
