Grant Writing Tips for Success

1. Tell your impact story with data: Balance powerful personal testimonials with concrete metrics showing your programme's effectiveness. Funders want to see both emotional connection and measurable outcomes.

2. Align with funder priorities: Research each funder thoroughly and tailor your application to highlight how your work directly addresses their specific focus areas. Make these connections explicit rather than assuming they'll see the alignment.

Our Grants Directory contains hundreds more opportunities that could help fund your valuable work. Remember that many general community wellbeing grants also welcome mental health applications, even if not explicitly stated.
