Draft an LOI
From the Nonprofit Basics Course: Grant Funding
Welcome to Draft an LOI! Please click the link for downloadable materials to help you. Additionally, be sure you have read/watched the other lessons in this unit so that you understand more clearly what each section of your LOI needs to include and why.
This is it! Time to write your grant proposal. Identify the foundation you wish to apply to by using your favorite foundation search engine. If you don’t have one, grant gopher offers three free searches to get you started. In the search engine, select the appropriate categories and locations for your organization. Once you identify your foundation search, choose a foundation and check their 990 filings as we practiced in a previous unit. Once you find one that suits your organization and the request amount you can ask for seems good, write your proposal to this particular foundation using the Sample LOI format in this unit.
