Grant Writing for Emergency Services
Fire departments do not receive funding like they need. Some fire departments only have $5,000 for their annual budget. How they operate with such little funding is amazing. Other departments may have larger operating budgets, but that normally comes with larger needs to provide services to a larger number of constituents. Grants can be a good option to help achieve projects that may not otherwise be funded. However, a major issue with grants is that people are not aware of the process and often follow myths vs. facts. This class will focus on the art of the grant writing process and how to be successful. It will dispel myths, explain the overall process, and give helpful hints as to how to increase your chances of obtaining grant funding.
