Grant Proposal:
Statement of Need Assignment Overview
The best way to
learn the knowledge and skills of grant writing is to write a Grant Proposal.
Each section of the grant proposal project will develop your knowledge, skills, and techniques used in the preparation of professional grant proposals. A grant proposal must convincingly present and
justify your ability to complete a project to a funding agency. Funding
agencies also have very specific requirements in the application process. Each
grant proposal project will introduce you to the sections most commonly
required by a private funding agency.
You will submit a
1-page “Statement of Need” as the first part of your actual Grant
Proposal. Remember this item is critical. It should be a comprehensive,
coherent, and concise description of “the problem” your organization faces and
written in a way that is persuasive and encourages a Grant Maker to want to
partnership with your organization to solve it.
Pick a logical “need” for your fictitious organization
based on its Mission Statement. Don’t create a monstrous, multifaceted “need”
with a large, involved budget. If you do, it makes the other assignments of the
Grant Proposal more time-consuming to complete.
Finally, be sure to read the sample “Need
Statements” in the textbook and consider modeling your submission after one
of them. There are some exceptional examples, and consider modeling your
submission after one of theirs.
Papers may be written in APA.
