Details

We are looking for assistance in finding and completing grant applications that support our mission and vision statement.

We believe this project will include:

  • Assist with defining a company-identified community problem and defining the scope of a corresponding project.
  • Develop a needs statement that characterizes the community problem and justifies the need for our project and funding.
  • Identify potential sponsors and funding opportunities that are a good fit for our organization and project.
  • Interpret a request for proposal (RFP).
  • Improve the clarity and persuasiveness of our company's grant proposal writing.
Deliverables

The project will be considered complete once an exhaustive list of grants and their criteria, description and other details is created. This includes whether or not our company is eligible for each of them as well as which we should prioritize based on deadlines and requirements.

Mentorship

Students will work closely with the primary project manager who is supervising and available for questions. This will also include occasional progress meetings where adjustments to the students' tasks and duties can be made if necessary.

The student will have direct access to the founder and can set up daily check-ins to help answer any questions about the research or direction.
