Writing Persuasive Proposals
Description
Join us for this workshop on persuasive proposal writing and learn how to take your proposal from paper to approval!
Your proposal is more likely to gain support if it's clear, concise, and captivating. It needs to convince a potential funder that there is a genuine need in the community, and that your organization has the experience, expertise and the tools to address that need.
