Hey Nonprofit Leader, My intention for sharing yet another "simple" grant is to see if it is worth continuing this community. Yes, I'm feeling a little bold with a slight frustration tonight. Tomorrow (or today) is the deadline for the Wal-Mart grant, but there are so many others out there. While I will not offer to "write a grant" for free, I would like to share a few to see who actually appreciates the share. The appreciation is shown by simply filling out the application on behalf of your organization. Here's another one that I thought many of you could really find aligned with your nonprofit organization: the Norsdstrom grant. I will even attach a copy of the grant application that can be viewed by anyone. If you decide to apply, please follow the directions because you actually fill out the application within the platform digitally. A lot of the grant platforms will have a PDF or Word-formatted application for you to print out and draft your answers on prior to applying. This keeps you, the applicant, from worrying about the platform timing-out prior to you completing it. This is also helpful to have your team participate and share a little of their brain's thoughts. A little humor, but seriously, it helps to strategize with at least one more person. I am really considering shutting this community down because it seems that even though people say they want something for FREE, there seems to be very little action on FREE information. By the way, have you completed the grant writing course? I need at least 5 nonprofit leaders from this community to let me know when they have applied. Honestly, that is all I want to know for this post. No thanks, no excuses, just let me know when you have applied. Fundraising course with 1:1 strategy session, along with two different levels to work much closer with me when you are ready. All for a very reasonable cost!

Hey! Did you get your calendar invite? It’s time to be even more intentional and focused than you ever have. October 1 starts the last quarter of the year! This time of the year has the highest money exchange so why shouldn’t you and your organization be a part. Remember not everyone is struggling financially. Some of those that are will still give. BUT you must be ready. That means compliant and visible. Join me tomorrow for a refresher on what you need to know and have in place for full compliance. Check the calendar here in the Nonprofit Skool community and register for the Nonprofit IMPACT Mastermind.
