Grant applications are open for a limited time each year and take a significant amount of time to prepare, so it’s critical to get started as soon as possible. To obtain funding, agencies must submit applications or proposals that meet the qualifications requested by the grantor. To do so requires a significant amount of research, planning, and writing.
