  1. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TO APPLY FOR A GRANT

  2. Needs Assessment • Grants are designed to meet clearly defined needs. • The needs statement must contain substantial, specific, justifiable needs, not just a general desire for funds.

  3. Investigate Grants Opportunities • Sources of grant funding: • Private Foundations. • Federal Programs. • State Programs.

  4. DUNS Number • Before a Federal grant can be applied for by an organization, it is necessary to obtain a DUNS number (Data Universal Number System). • Individuals do not need a DUNS number. • It is required when applying for a grant to many foundations. • The DUNS number is provided free of charge by Dun & Bradstreet. Use it in all applications for future federal grants. • A DUNS number can be obtained by calling toll-free 1-866-705-5711.

  5. Other Numbers • CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) Number is a number assigned to a grant-providing agency. • Funding Opportunity Number is a number assigned to a grant. • These numbers can be entered when searching grants online, to limit the search to a specific grant or a specific agency.

  6. Sources for Grant Information • All institutions applying for an federal grant can apply via Grants.gov, the government-wide grants portal. • They will send automatic e-mail notifications of new grant opportunities within specified categories. • Individuals can find grant information in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance, cfda.gov. • State education grant information is available through the State Board of Education sites. • Illinois State Board of Education. • A foundation’s web site or annual report may contain information. • Ford Foundation. • MacArthur Foundation. • Rockefeller Foundation.

  7. Definitions • Consult online or paper glossaries. Many are available online from universities and government offices. • Examples: • Armstrong Atlantic State University. • U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

  8. Determine Eligibility • Research an organization before approaching them. • Read grant application thoroughly. • If there are questions about eligibility, the originating agency should be contacted before beginning work on the grant is begun.

  9. Components of the Written Grant: • Cover letter. • Title page/Cover Sheet. • Tale of Contents. • Abstract. • Narrative. • Budget. • Supporting materials.

  10. Cover Letter • One page. • How much money is needed. • What the problem is. • How this would help solve it.

  11. Title Page or Cover Sheet Example:

  12. Table of Contents • Optional. • Consider making one if narrative is over five pages. • Advised if narrative is over ten pages.

  13. Abstract • The first thing looked at by the reviewer. • A summary of the project. • Less than one page long. • About one sentence for each point covered in the narrative. • Background of the project, aims, methodology (action steps) to be used, expected results, and impact on other areas.

  14. Narrative • Needs, objectives, anticipated outcomes. • Full description of key points listed in abstract. • Measurable outcomes, evaluation methodology- how you plan to evaluate the project. • List of the people involved in the project with their roles and qualifications. • Estimated timetable for each stage of project.

  15. Narrative- Continued • Explanation of results. • Implementation methodology- how the project will be made available to the larger audience. • How the project advances goals of granting institution. • Beneficiaries, anyone who gains from the project, should be mentioned. • How the project will be sustained after the grant period ends.

  16. Budget • Personnel expenses, including salaries. • Project expenses, including equipment and travel expenses. • Administrative or Overhead expenses- (non-personnel expenses for resources tied up by grant needs.)

  17. Supporting Materials • IRS tax-exemption letter. • Annual reports. • Newsletters. • Brochures. Example of newsletter to demonstrate publicity:

  18. When the Grant is Funded • Carry out all requirements of the grant. • Government grants often include mandatory training sessions. • Write and submit all necessary progress reports. • Failure to properly account for the funds may cause future grant proposals to be denied.
