What Is A Grant Proposal?

Each year, the government along with private foundations and public corporations offer billions of dollars in funding to individuals and organisations to be used for specific projects. This funding, which is called a grant requires no repayment as long as it is used to fund the project for which it was allocated. Grants can be given to individuals, non-profit or not-for-profit companies, charitable organisations, or educational facilities. In order to receive a grant, the prospective recipient must submit a formal request to the organisation. This request is called a grant proposal. Click to download
