About Get Grants Core Costs Applications MASTERCLASS
Get Grants Core Costs Applications MASTERCLASS, led by Get Grants Director John Ellery will look at the popular topic of applying for core costs grants.
Accessing unrestricted core costs grants to help your organisation cover all the costs (e.g. rent, utilities, salaries) you need to deliver your charitable work are the priority for many charitable organisations and fundraisers. But these are often in short supply and those that exist are highly subscribed. Making your funding applications as strong as possible when approaching core costs grant funders is essential – which fundraisers often tell us they struggle with.
Following John’s previous Core Costs Masterclass, this masterclass will explore how you could develop successful core costs grant applications, understand how to make your application stand out in a competitive funding landscape, and give you practical tips and information to build your confidence to ultimately maximise your fundraising success rate.
Who is it for?
Get Grants Core Costs Applications MASTERCLASS is designed to help fundraisers and charitable organisations who are currently exploring, or wanting to start, grant fundraising.
By attending this session, you will benefit from practical, accessible information and friendly advice to help you explore putting together core costs applications with confidence for your organisation, no matter its size. This session is appropriate for people of all levels of experience and organisations across the sector.
