Introduction to Grantmakers & grantmaking
Each year, foundations and corporate giving programs disburse billions of dollars. They support programs and projects meant to improve the lives of people throughout the world and protect the world itself. Yet not much is known how grantmakers actually operate.
The Nonprofit Success Forum offers you two ways to enhance your grant seeking skills. In the morning, listen to a panel of distinguished grantmakers who will openly discuss their philosophy on grantmaking, how they operate, and most important how you can build a more successful relationship with the grantmaking community. In the afternoon, participate in small group discussions with other nonprofit leaders and experienced grant seekers on successful grant seeking methods.See the structure and format of the Forum below:
| SESSION | HEAR FROM | SETTING | WHAT YOU WILL LEARN |
| Morning | Grantmakers | Panel discussion | Do's and don'ts for building a successful relationship |
| Afternoon | Grantmakers & Grantseekers | Small group discussion | Important tips for seeking, securing and managing grants |
