STORYTELLING FOR GRANTSEEKERS
This second edition of the best-selling book Storytelling for Grantseekers contains all the resources and information needed to help craft a persuasive summary, package a compelling narrative story, and create a short story approach to letters of inquiry. Cheryl Clarke walks grantseekers through all the phases of developing an effective proposal and highlights the creative elements that link components to each other and unify the entire proposal. Clarke also stresses the larger grantseeking effort, one that emphasizes preparation, working with the entire development staff and board of directors, and maintaining positive relations with funders. Using this resource, new and seasoned grantseekers will discover how to channel their passion and creativity to tell their organization's tale and create winning proposals.
Completely revised and updated, this new edition contains:
- A collection of new illustrative examples
- Exercises that incorporate the storytelling approach
- Suggestions for planning and hosting successful site visits
- A helpful example of a full narrative proposal
- Information about how the storytelling approach applies to other fundraising communications such as appeal letters and case statements
