“It was an insightful webinar that is great for intermediates because it goes beyond just the basic components of grants (which many workshops cover) to discuss things like theories of change, needs assessment tools, and logic models - all of which can often be overlooked, yet make a huge difference in the effectiveness of a grant proposal. Thanks for the insight.”
Michaela D, RunningWorks
