Visually attractive cover
As every business expert knows, the key to grabbing a funder's attention is to make a great first impression. That's why it's a good idea to start your grant proposal with a visually attractive cover.
Our team included a carefully designed cover in this sample proposal to ensure you have everything you need to wow the funders the second they open your email. You can change everything from the text, logo, and background image to make it more in line with your grant proposals.
Summary
The executive summary or a cover letter is the best way to start your business proposal and show your passion and knowledge to financial institutions or other donors. In short, it is a request for an investment for a nonprofit or for-profit organization.
Use this page to clearly and briefly describe who you are, the nature of your business, and how the requested amount of money will be used to reach your goals and objectives.
Organization profile
It's time to describe in detail what your business model or organization profile looks like. Think of this page as a 'body' of your grant proposal. Include your track record, prospective clients, goals, and philosophy; essentially, why your company should be selected.
Like everything else in this free proposal template, this page is completely editable - the colors, the text, images, layout - everything.
Statement of need
The best way to get funding is to show donors what problems you intend to solve. That's why we created the perfect page that allows you to lay out all the details and your action plan.
In this grant project proposal template, we've dedicated a whole section to your statement of need. All you need to do is fill it in!
Project description
It's time to highlight exactly what you would like the donor to fund, as this section of your proposal is all about the project details! This completely customizable page is all about answering the question: 'Why do you need the money?'
Activities and outcomes
Now that your potential donor has a clear idea on what your ultimate goal is, it's time to show them how you plan on getting there. This page helps you lay out all the steps towards your main goal in a clear way.
Proposed budget
Taking the time to clearly break down the budget shows donors that your cause is a good investment to make. Using our automatically calculated pricing tables, you can itemize your planned expenses and organize them by category.
Next steps
The harder it is for the funder to give you a grant, the lower the chances you're getting it. That's why this grant proposal comes with a simple accept button that lets you know the funder would like to proceed with collecting the necessary documentation.
