By the end of the training, you will have a clear understanding of how to craft compelling proposals that resonate with funders and demonstrate your organization’s capacity to deliver impactful outcomes.
What’s new? This training now includes updated content on leveraging AI in grant writing, providing participants with five practical tips for utilizing AI tools effectively to enhance their proposals. Additionally, the importance of partnerships is emphasized, highlighting how they can enhance credibility, broaden project impact, and increase sustainability, which is crucial for meeting funder expectations. Participants will also learn about the distinctions between outcomes and outputs, with a focus on how clearly defined outcomes demonstrate long-term benefits and align with funder missions, while specific outputs serve as measurable benchmarks for success. This new content aims to equip both new and returning participants with the latest strategies and insights to make their grant proposals more competitive and effective.

Fringe: When We Get Good Again

When We Get Good AgainBy James McLindonDirected by Billy Christopher Maupin

Poor but brilliant college student Tracy needs straight A’s to get into a top law school that will forgive her mountain of academic debt so she can be a lawyer for the poor. With the economic odds stacked against her, she tries to rationalize her job writing term papers for wealthy students. But she’s not sure she can do it. When We Get Good Again explores the current age in which personal integrity seems to be eroding before our eyes, and each day seems to bring new headlines about politicians who lie as naturally as they breathe and parents who buy their child’s admission into the college of their choice. In a world of privilege and deprivation, is it still immoral to cheat in order to level a playing field that is already supposed to be flat?
This production contains explicit language and brief reference of attempted suicide.
