Knowing Your Organization and Community: Connecting Capability, Data, and Need

Organizational Capability: Building on Mission, Values and Focus

(13:55 to 35:23)

Organizational mission and capability is the unspoken foundation of writing a grant – the claim you’re your organization, with its unique history, community, and past accomplishments, is the best choice to do the work to be funded. Learn how to present these strengths about your own organization.

Needs Assessment: Making Your Case

(39:15 to 1:18:55)

The needs section of a grant ties the need of a community to your organization’s ability to effectively meet that need through a funded project, and it’s where you begin to tell the story of the funding application. Also covered: types of data to explain need and where to find them.
