Project Planning for Grant Funding

Join Us for an Empowering One-Day Workshop for Cis & Trans Women, People with Disabilities and other overlooked Founders.

Are you a founder taking steps to secure grant funding for your next big project? If you are statistically a minority in the entrepreneurial ecosystem, this workshop is designed to help you navigate the complexities of the project planning process as it applies to grant applications. 

Workshop Focus: Project Planning for Grant Funding

This hands-on, one-day workshop invites you to have ready a specific grant program you are interested in applying for. Together, we will:

• Map Out a Project Plan: Align your proposed project with the eligible activities specified in your chosen grant program.
• Prepare a Detailed Budget: Identify and outline fundable budget items.
• Craft a Project Summary: Develop a concise and compelling project overview.

What You'll Gain:

By the end of the day, you will have:

• A clear understanding of which activities and budget items are fundable.
• The beginnings of a comprehensive project plan tailored to your grant application.
• A first draft project summary to strengthen your grant submission.

These elements are critical in preparing a successful grant application. They ensure that your submission stands out and meets all necessary criteria.

Why Attend?

This workshop is your opportunity to:

• Access a series of validated tools, templates and resources. 
• Collaborate with like-minded founders.

I recognise their cultures, histories, diversity, and their deep connection to the lands, waters, and skies. I pay my respects to the Turrbal peoples as the Traditional Custodians of this land.
