Stop Being Rejected  
Get Your Nonprofit's Grants Funded
You may think it's impossible to get grants in today's tough funding environment... 
but if you learn the secrets of grant writing masters... YOU can be Funded!
REJECTION HURTS

We've all had our grant proposals rejected. We know how that feels. Terrible. It hurts our pride and our sense of competence. But rejection doesn't just hurt us as individuals. It hurts people who need help when your proposals are turned down. It hurts your organization when it doesn't have the resources it needs to keep your experienced colleagues employed. It hurts your community when identified needs continue to fester.
Why This Course?
Too many good-hearted, well-meaning, smart people in nonprofits today are thrust into writing grants because "someone" needs to do it.  

But without specific knowledge of where to look for opportunities, what to include in the proposal, and how to package it, you're not going to have a chance of being funded, even if it is a good idea!

Funded! Successful Grantwriting for Your Nonprofit, based on my book, is the complete online course that will take you from complete novice to confident  grant writer, in just a few short weeks.  

I am pained by the problems I see around us every day, problems that need fixing.  I believe good ideas that solve real problems DESERVE to get resources.  

Thousands of grant proposals with good ideas are rejected because their authors have never learned the basics of grantwriting.

MILLIONS of people whose lives could be improved are left in their current condition, with sinking hopes, because of a lack of skill on the part of people who want to help.  

It's important to learn what funders want and how to give it to them so your proposals get funded.

Things Are Different Today

Hi, I'm Dr Richard Hoefer.

For more than 25 years (a quarter for a century!) I've been writing grants, getting funded, and teaching others to do so as well in my university classes.

It's used to be, grants were a lot easier to get and many poorly written proposals were funded.  

It's not like that anymore. The competition is stiff and requirements are tough. Those who are out there "attempting" to get grants will find themselves far behind the curve. 

This FUNDED course gives you the edge you need to get resources for your organization, your cause, and your clients. 

Dr. Richard Hoefer, Author of
Funded! Successful Grantwriting for Your Nonprofit

"Dr. Hoefer is an exceptional grantwriting instructor, and his book Funded! Successful Grantwriting for Your Nonprofit presents a concise, comprehensive and insightful guide to developing winning grant proposals from the ground up. 

Through Dr. Hoefer’s expertise as a grantwriter, author and professor, I started as a complete novice and proudly completed his course with a professional grant proposal in hand and the knowledge, tools and abilities to go forward in the world of grants and development.

A must-have grantwriting resource!”

What You Can Do As a Successful Grantwriter
Support Your Cause
Compete and Win
Help People

Successful grantwriters find and acquire money and other resources to support causes they love, from children with cancer to elderly people who have been scammed.  Whatever cause YOU believe in, you will be able to make it happen!

Writing grants is very competitive, and when you know the ins and outs of the profession, you'll feel the "thrill of victory" when the proposal that YOU crafted after hours of effort is given recognition as among the best submitted. 

Helping people is the number one thing that successful grantwriters do.  With YOUR skills and efforts, you will bring vital resources to organizations that assist and empower people to live better lives.  You will be a key player in improving the lives of thousands.

How Much Do Grantwriting Courses Usually Cost?

Other grant courses cost a lot of money--I've seen prices as high as $1,499.00, which doesn't include other costs, such as airfare, hotel charges, and restaurant bills. The least expensive reputable course, that only covers foundation grants, sets you back $595.00, for 2 days of information and 1 day of practice--and again ignores the real costs of travel.

You won't know much about the presenters, either. They may have just been given a script to follow, without every having had to prove themselves in the real world of writing grants.

And don't forget the hidden price you pay--time away from your office, your family, your LIFE!
