Grant Writing 101 Course
for Climate Justice Change Makers
In 2022 I organized a 7-week online grant writing course which focused on grant writing basics, from research to writing proposals to creating budgets. By the end of course participants came away with a proposal that they were ready to share with funders! The course was designed especially for climate justice and resilience hubs organizers and was co-sponsored by Bay Area Green Tours and the City of San Leandro’s Office of Sustainability. Topics included:
- Proposal readiness: setting your organization up for success
- Researching and building relationships with funders
- Writing excellent proposals: project descriptions, narratives, budgets and more
“I really liked learning culture you all created. I felt comfortable asking questions and sharing my thoughts. Thanks! We covered a lot of ground in a short period of time. I also really appreciate how you gathered and shared resources in one place. Thank you for all your hard work!” Simma Lieberman, Grant Writing 101 participant
