    New Grant Writing Professional Looking for Advice

    Posted by raquel on 4/28/2011, 11:34 am

    I am fairly new to the field of grant writing, and I am hoping to get some advice and feedback from more seasoned professionals.

    I worked at a nonprofit previously for three years where I pursued grant writing out of necessity to fund programs I wanted to implement. Later, I was approached by another nonprofit to provide freelance grant writing services, and I have been doing so for about 6 months. I'd like to make this a full-time career.

    I've trained with the Foundation Center in NYC and attended some local workshops on grant writing. I've had some success, but I need to find additional clients without much start up money.

    I was hoping that some of you could review my website (www.RaquelABraemer.com) and offer up any advice or feedback. I'm in the greater Philadelphia area and have been keeping up with local news articles mentioning nonprofits with decreasing budgets, etc.

    Any tips or advice for someone new to the field on how to get started, generate more clients, and add to my experience?

    Thanks so much!
