From Ascribe Newsfeed: The newest title in the Foundation Center's suite of proposal writing guides includes 35 actual proposals that received foundation funding. Designed for development officers, nonprofit board members, fundraising consultants, volunteers, and others in pursuit of foundation grants, "The Grantseeker's Guide to Winning Proposals" provides real-world proposals for general operating support, program development, staff salaries, program evaluation, and other needs. "Grantseekers often tell us that they want models of successful proposals so they can learn how to improve their odds of securing funding," said Judith Margolin, editor of the guide and the Center's vice president for planning and evaluation. The proposals were approved by a wide array of national, international, and regional grantmakers, including small family foundations and grantmaking public charities. Each proposal is accompanied by a critique from the grantmaker who awarded the grant, offering a unique insider's look at what grantmakers focus on as they make funding decisions. The Center's Web site receives more than 57,000 visits each day, and thousands of people gain access to free resources in its five regional library/learning centers and its national network of close to 400 Cooperating Collections.
