With ever increasing pressure on local budgets, communities and organizations are more frequently looking for competitive grants to fund local projects. Being successful in securing grant funds is dependent upon one’s ability to submit a quality application. To assist in this process, K-State Research and Extension, River Valley District will be offering a Grant Writing Workshop on Jan. 30 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the EMS Building in Miltonvale.
This workshop is designed to help participants discover how to secure funding for projects, programs or initiatives and to develop confidence in grant writing abilities. Participants will learn about sources of data for community needs, elements of a great grant proposal, where to find grants and how to develop a grant budget. Throughout the day, participants will have the opportunity to practice the various elements of grant writing and implementation.
Registration covers materials, refreshments and lunch. Contact John Forshee, River Valley District Director/Community Vitality Agent with questions or to register for the workshop by calling the Clay Center office at 785-632-5335 or emailing him at [email protected].
