How are you supposed to gain experience as a grant writer when you are already so busy with other things like full-time jobs and kids? Do you volunteer first? How long do you volunteer as a grant writer before you get paid?
These are questions we get asked all of the time:
“What is the best way to gain grant writing experience when you are not part of a nonprofit or private entity?” - Kali
“Would you encourage someone with no grant writing experience to start a consulting business immediately or to first volunteer/work with an existing business to gain experience?” - Alisa
Here's our answer: We do not believe you have to volunteer as a grant writer even if you have no experience.
You can get started by creating a funding strategy for a client at a discounted rate.
