Through various sponsorship partners, 4-H Ontario is able to offer several grants to support 4-H’ers across the province.
Check out these tips for writing grant applications:
- READ the application form and guidelines completely and identify both your priorities and the application’s priorities.
- Review grant requirements thoroughly to ensure your applications follows the correct guidelines (word count, submission deadline, etc.)
- Do a preliminary guidelines check to ensure you are eligible for the grant.
- Be concise – keep words, sentences and paragraphs short.
- Develop a budget and use it as a planning tool in the narrative (it helps you outline activities involved in your project).
- Remember to ‘spell-check’.
- Always keep a copy of the final proposal package for reference (including all required attachments).
