Webinar: Grant Writing Kickstarter – Tools & Strategies for the LGBTQ South!

The webinar took place on November 13, 2018. Missed it? Scroll down to watch the full recording  and download resources shared during the webinar.

Over the years, we’ve sat down with many of our partners to support them through process of writing grants, and now we’re excited to bring this support to our full network in the webinar “Grant Writing Kickstarter: Tools & Strategies for the LGBTQ South.”

Veteran grant writers from Campaign for Southern Equality (CSE) and Southerners on New Ground (SONG) shared their experiences with grant writing, discussed their most helpful tips and strategies, and provided coaching to webinar participants.

This webinar covered the fundamentals for how to effectively tell the story of your work, demystified the complex and confusing landscape of grant funding – especially that of LGBTQ funding in the South, and shared honest dialogue about how to weather the storm and not internalize rejection and critique.
