Does it make sense for my organization to apply for federal grants? What are the challenges? What are the pitfalls? What are the odds that we can get money from the federal government? When we do get it, are we prepared? Is there any stimulus money available? This session will help nonprofits learn how to assess and increase the possibility of applying, receiving and managing federal grants. Additional learning on this topic is addressed in ”A Strategic Approach to Seeking Federal Funding”
Full participation in "Should We Apply for Federal Grants?" is applicable for 3.0 points in Category 1.B – Education of the CFRE International application for initial certification and/or recertification – Non Fundraising Related content.
Getting to the Center for Nonprofit Excellence (CNPE) is easy. We are located on the south side of downtown Louisville, KY in the restored ArtSpace building located at 323 West Broadway. You may enter ArtSpace just left of the Brown Theatre marquee. Signage will direct you to the training classroom location. CNPE encourages all its visitors to access public transit as there are several convenient TARC bus routes within a short walk of our location. To find the TARC ride nearest you visit, www.ridetarc.org.
Are you a cycling guest? Bring your bicycle to the fifth floor for storage during your visit.
Should you drive to our location, there is ample parking within a two block radius including structures, surface lots and metered spaces. Due to the economic realities we all face, the Center for Nonprofit Excellence will be unable to validate parking. While we regret this financial necessity, we need to expend all of our resources where they matter most -- toward the highest level of quality services possible.
