| The fundraising proposal communicates
the needs of an organization to its potential supporters.
It is largely on the basis of the written proposal that
many funders will decide whether or not to make a grant.
Therefore, the difference between a good and a bad proposal
will be the difference between success and failure. This
course aims to identify the key points to enable you to
produce a proposal which matches the requirements of a potential
funder.
