Are you ready to start fundraising, but don't know what and how much to ask for? Join us to learn the basic elements of how to draft a project budget. Registration is required. For adults.

If preparing a budget for your foundation grant is holding you back, come and learn the basic elements of how to draft a project budget with confidence.

This class will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to generate a standard project budget for a foundation proposal. We will discuss:

· The basic components of a project budget including income and expenses

· How to estimate the realistic cost of a project

· What other financial documents you also may need to submit with your proposal

This class is brought to you in partnership with Candid, a nonprofit that helps other nonprofits serve their communities. As a Candid community member, TCCL offers Candid’s key tools including GuideStar and Foundation Directory. Our customers can access GuideStar to research local nonprofits to support and to find services. Nonprofits seeking funding can also access Foundation Directory to find and connect with funders.
