So, you need funding? 1. Where to begin… 2. Putting it all together… 3. Funding Resources…

Where to begin….

Things to Consider: The Problem The Solution The Funding Current Goals/Objectives, Initiatives Administrative Support Sustainability Odds of Winning

Step 1: The Team: Collaboration = SUCCESS! Stakeholders District level staff or others with buy-in Field experts

Step 2: Research What solutions already exist? What are possible funding sources?

Step 3: Know the RFP RFP’s guidelines Required format The Team Go to the source

Step 4: Plan the Proposal An Introduction A Statement of Need Goals/Objectives Evaluation The Budget

The Introduction Piece: A clear picture Who benefits? Past successes The Needs Assessment Beware: “educational jargon”

The Statement of Need Piece: Problem/solution District/funding source priorities Honest/strong Needs of stakeholders A compelling argument Beware: “reader knowledge”

The Goals/Objectives Piece: Establishes outcomes States success Logical steps Is demonstrable Beware: “non-measurable objectives”

The Evaluation Piece: Success? Data? Method? Evaluator? Reporting method? Results? Beware: “evaluation plan unrelated to objectives”

The Budget Piece: Entire Cost Funding sources “Real” figures Sufficient Sustainability Beware: “district policies”

Putting it all together…

Step 5: Writing the Draft A goal A couple of objectives Critique/revise Divide the work

Common Pitfalls: educational jargon long/sleepy sentencing over dramatization passive voice disjointed writing typos and grammatical errors immeasurable objectives poor budget lack of research base procrastination wrong funding source Ignoring the RFP

Step 6: Final Draft Edit Team input Review the RFP Beware: “excessive revision”

Funding Resources…
