Write a Grant in Class: Join Us for the Two (2) Day Grant Writing Retreat with Dr. Drew in Santa Ana, CA

Sometimes the best way to learn grant writing is to write a grant. Dear Friend:  Please join me for a two-day grant writing retreat for both beginning and experienced grant writers in Santa Ana, CA on November 1 and 2, 2016.  Rave Reviews for Dr. Drew's Two Day Grant Writing Retreat In contrast to earlier retreats, this one includes up to six (6) hours of my individualized follow-up coaching including help from me or my staff with your writing, editing, proofreading and messaging activities.  Based on my successful grant writing career, this retreat is designed to meet the educational needs of grant writers from city, county, and state agencies as well as non-profits, community colleges and universities.  You will emerge from this retreat with all - or a large portion - of your grant proposal written and ready to submit to an appropriate funder.  This retreat will help you: Develop a top-notch, professional, winning grant proposal Learn how to get funders interested in your project Identify at least 10 realistic funders for your project Discover the best ways to approach funders Develop effective readable budgets that make sense Discover the best practices and trends in grant writing Learn the insider secrets on drafting great proposals Save time with grant writing strategies and more After the retreat is complete, you will also receive up to six (6) hours of individual coaching from me or my staff depending on your specific needs. As indicated above, this is a completely new feature of the retreat package. It will give you and your organization the opportunity to work with me one-on-one and to see up close the techniques I have used to raise over $40 million in grants over my career.  This practical and down-to-earth workshop is scheduled as follows: November 1 & 2, 2016  9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Location: 1231 East Dyer Road, Suite 215 Santa Ana, CA 92705 Two Day Grant Writing Retreat with Dr. Drew Only Seven (7) Spots Available Early Bird Price: $1,495 (Order before October 31, 2016 to get the early bird price.)
