The Nonprofit FAQ

How do you get started writing a proposal?
If you've done the assessment of your organization, you've already got a good start. Make an outline, using such headings as: Background (History of Organization), Problem(s) or Need(s), Objectives, Methods, Timeline, Evaluation, Budget. As you fill in the outline, make sure each problem you mention leads to a related objective and a plausible method for reaching that objective.
