⭐”Oh, that I might have my request,That God would grant me the thing that I long for!” — Job 6:8 (NKJV)If you are totally new to looking for grants, Grant Writing for Dummies will save you a lot of time, effort, frustration, headaches, and expense. I have been dabbling in grant writing and knew that I was over my head. Any chapter of this well-thought-out book will be worth the book’s cost to you.I particularly liked the idea of becoming a grant reviewer, as a way to obtain a keener understanding of the decision-making process.I was pleased to see that the book contains a complete example of a grant application narrative, which I found to be very helpful.In addition, the author refers readers to lots of free resources (both online and off) that are sure to yield better opportunities.I don’t know how successful my future efforts will be, but I can at least be sure to be working on the right things in the right ways.Thanks Dr. Browning!

⭐This book provides an excellent, comprehensive overview of what you need to know to write grants. While there is a danger of information overload for a beginner, most books for new grant writers don’t provide enough information, and that is definitely not the case for this book. The many checklists, tips, warnings, and practical examples will be particularly helpful as you get started with grant writing.

⭐I just got this to find out about writing grants for one of my clubs. Excellent help so far.

⭐I started a non-profit group and needed assistance on writing grants without the expense of hiring a professional. New to the business and grant writing, this book provided step-by-step instruction on all the necessary requirements and processes for doing so successfully. I highly recommend this book to those who know nothing or next to nothing about grant writing as it provided clear and concise steps.

⭐This book demystifies what can be a confusing and scary process, and provides clarity and a rational approach to grant seeking and writing. It leads the reader through the assessment process–developing a fundraising plan, identifying potential sources of funding, and then crafting the grant proposal itself–and provides inside information on what makes a good grant request. A must-read for anyone seeking a grant.

⭐My husband is a Vietnam Veteran and they have a group called “Vet Connect”. They are constantly in need of donations and grants. My husband, John, had decided to run for President of this organization, and I promised to read this book and help find monies that are available. I’m only half way through and I have highlighted several excellent suggestions. So far, I totally recommend this book. Very easy to understand.

⭐Said very good condition, it’s not, the cover is all bust up and the pages all bent.

⭐it was okay. I. would by from the seller again came in before time. I bought it as a gift and they really seem to like itit was in great shape. exactly what it looks like
