Learn Grant-en-Ease® Ft. Lauderdale & Miami– 2 Days Only!

Aug. 24, 2010 - PRLog -- AllWrite Communications is offering our special Workshop Retreats at the beautiful Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa and the Hilton Garden Inn on September 14 (1pm - 6pm) and September 15th (1 pm-6pm).  During these exciting, educational forums our grant award-winning instructors teach you to speak and write in “GRANT-en-EASE®,” a carefully developed language which unlocks your natural potential to learn or advance your skill level in grant writing.

Last year, President Obama's administration awarded $137 billion dollars in Stimulus Funding. With over 26 federal grant making agencies and over 900 individual programs, these retreats will ensure you get your share of 2011 funds and are terrific training opportunities for nonprofits, their staff, volunteers and board leadership.  

Workshop Retreat Highlights

* Six weeks until the deadline! Learning priceless organizational tips will save you a lot worry and ease the burden of deadline pressure many grant writers and nonprofit leaders face on a daily basis.
* Be judged (and encouraged) by your peers during our fun-filled, educational group activity.
* Navigating the "Gateway" to Federal Grants (grants.gov and ccr.gov)
Lessons and information on how to obtain a job as a federal grant peer reviewer and supplement your income by working virtually from your home or office.
* Your action-packed highly educational day is a "hands-on" writing course where you learn to write a complete federal grant proposal by an expert who has submitted winning proposals and is also a federal grant reviewer who scores federal proposals submitted from all across the country.
* After this session, you will have a special skill set which will allow you the opportunity, not only to be successful at the federal level, but you will find every other request for funding (private foundations, corporations, city and state bids) will come easily to you.
