I have been a grant writer for decades. Thank you for this video. I did not know this kind of scamming was going on--that's how naive I am! Your advice about paying grant writers for their work was music to my ears. I have often been asked to work for free. My answer is always no and then I gently say that in our profession it is, as you have said, unethical. Best to you!
Thank you for all your honest tips. You are definitely doing a great work. Congratulations.
Thank you for this video!! Powerful!!
Thank you for this video! I’ve found surprisingly a few resources about the relationship between grant managers and clients/EDs. I’d love to hear anything else you want to add on this topic!
Thank you so much

Unfortunately, no.
Okay I have a question If I were to start a nonprofit would the IRS or somebody tell me to start working on it automatically or could I get everything situated first beforehand ( equipment/building ect) Would I be able to ease into it and take my time?

Hi, if you want to ease into it, you don't have to incorporate right away. You could work under a fiscal sponsor or complete some small service projects first.
Thank you for this video! It was so helpful in a decision I was about to make in hiring a second Grant writer. I worked with someone on Fiverr that wrote my proposal but did not give me any portal access or screenshots of 2 applications . She said it would take 14 weeks and these are the two Grant applied. All of a sudden her service became unavailable. I am at such a loss at how to do this for my Nonprofit. What websites are legitimate for grants do you recommend?

I'm so glad it helped!! I like Grantstation and Instrumental. The Foundation Directory Online can be accessed for free at local libraries, but you have to check on the candid.org website to see where
