Rodney Walker: Hello and welcome to the Grant Writing training. I will share with you how to write a grant proposal step by step. I want to encourage you to dial-in and to really focus and to remove all distractions because I have some valuable information to share with you and our time today.

So with that said, who is this for? This is for anyone interested in learning the fundamentals of writing a grant proposal...

Is it hard to apply for a grant and write one? You know, yes and no. It's hard when you don't know what you're doing. Just like it was when you were first trying to ride a bike or just like it was when you were first trying to drive a stick shift. 

It was hard. You didn't know what you're doing, but now you can do multiple things at the same time. When you were first trying to ride a bike, you had to have those training wheels. And in that same way, when you're trying to learn how to write a grant, you also need some training wheels as well. 

That's why I want to invite you today to come hang out with me, because I have some training wheels to help train you on exactly how to get funded. 

Now, there were some people just like you who didn't know a thing about grant writing when they first started out, but I was able to show them. And just in case you were wondering, go over to WowTheyDidIt.com and listen and hear some of the people that we've been able to...

Words cannot express how proud I am of Kayla Bey. When she first came to me interested in learning to write grants, she was already in a dire situation. This young lady demonstrated a dogged tenacity to get what she desired even though her circumstances and conditions could have made the average person give up.

She wasn't going to quit! Even though her situation went from bad to worse. She still wasn't giving up on what she wanted. Even when she had to go to a different state with your son, she didn't give up in a move that seemed to be going backward to keep her head above water.

That's why after having worked with her and sharing my knowledge of grant writing, it does my heart well to see her soar like an eagle in doing what she wanted to do and working on her wealth with her business on the side. Hats off to Kayla Bey... Please join me in congratulating this fighter!

Below is the transcript of the surprise pop-up that happened a few weeks ago. You will also see a video of a full...

Hey, guys, Rodney Walker here of Grant Central USA. I'm over at the Grants Community blog and I just want to bring your attention to a recent post regarding the Office of Management and Budget.

They've officially designated grants.gov as the Managing Agency, the United States Department of Health and Human Services as the Quality Service Management Office for Grants Management.

This means that HHS will be leading the effort to transform the federal government management process from end to end, basically overseeing the grant management process in four areas the pre-award, post-award, and closeout.

Now, what's really important to note about this is a few things.

One, that the HHS will be working to help, to modernize, and to improve on the grant development efforts.

This also means that improving your skill in grant writing, through certification, will be more beneficial in your career as an online grant writer.

And what's also really worth noting, as we look at this, in the fiscal...

Hey, guys, Rodney Walker of Grant Central USA. I want to take a moment to acknowledge this special day, January 26, 2021.

This is the day that our group, the Grant Writers Association, has officially crossed over the 15,000 member mark. Yes, 15,000 plus members now are part of the Grant Writers Association, and we have people standing in line waiting to get in. 

Thank you for making that possible. 

If you haven't had an opportunity to hear the story yet, feel free to go over to GetFundedwithRodney.com. This will take you to the channel, and you will get an opportunity to hear and learn more about the story of how all of this came about.

As a freelance writer, you have control over your schedule and workload. You have the opportunity to work with individuals and organizations from various industries, too. However, this career path offers little job security and financial stability. When work opportunities are scarce, you’ll be left with one-off assignments that barely pay the minimum.

Fortunately, you don’t have to leave the freelancer lifestyle to earn additional income. Grant writing is a good way to bolster your current work. Non-profit organizations are always in need of skilled writers to create proposals to raise money. This line of work allows you to help make changes to the world without leaving the comfort of your home.

What is Grant Writing?

Grant writing is the concept of creating proposals to raise funds for the activities planned by non-profit organizations. These proposals are sent to financial institutions and potential donors in the private sector.
