By demonstrating that the programs and mission of the nonprofit will make it possible for the funder to achieve its mission. Grant awards are not about money--that's just the conduit--the purpose of grant funding is to achieve a funder's goals through the trusted nonprofits that they select to receive grants through the filtering process that is in place for applicants.

I advise clients to review the outcomes section of an RFP. It is the alignment between an applicant's programs (and mission) that determine whether or not it is worth the time to complete the entire application process.

Asking questions is a great way to understand the funders or stakeholders needs and give you the information you need to fine tune the project to fit the funding goals.

2 Build Relationships

Building strong, personal relationships with stakeholders is essential for securing more funding. Regular communication, transparency about project progress, and demonstrating accountability can create trust and credibility. Show them they're not just investing in a project, but in a relationship with someone who values their support and is committed to delivering results. This personal connection can often be the deciding factor in whether stakeholders choose to increase their investment.

I agree that building relationships is important. During the bidding process it is helpful to get to know the funding parties. It can help with this round as well as future rounds. This builds on part 1 of understanding what they are looking for.

3 Showcase Impact

To sway stakeholders, vividly showcase the impact of your grant projects. Use compelling narratives and success stories to illustrate the positive changes that have already been achieved with existing funds. Highlighting tangible benefits and improvements in the community or field of work can make a powerful case for why additional support is crucial to amplify these successes. This emotional appeal can often resonate more effectively than raw data alone.

Funders are keen to know that their partnership is impactful. Show them! Keep them abreast of what is going in with the organization, and invite them to volunteer when that is feasible. If you have the opportunity to compile consistent repeatable data that can substantuiate your organization's impact, and or provide statistical backing, that is always powerful. Finally, real examples and testimonials are a wonderful way to support other efforts to showcase impact.

I believe in the power of “story.” In our culture, though, words on a page may not resonate with stakeholders who already spend too much time reading screens. Thats why I think stories in the form of a quick podcast are great options. Hearing a conversation between a service provider and a client can be refreshing and illustrate the impact of financial gifts in profound ways.

5 Strategic Planning

Emphasize your strategic planning skills by presenting a clear and detailed plan for how additional funds will be used. Stakeholders need to see that you have a vision for the future and that you are capable of executing it effectively. Break down your goals into actionable steps, showing how each phase of funding will contribute to larger objectives. This level of planning can reassure stakeholders that their investment will be managed wisely.

6 Communicate Value

Finally, communicate the value proposition of investing more in your grant projects. Explain how additional funding will lead to greater returns, whether in terms of social impact, scientific advancement, or community development. Make it clear that their support is not just a donation but an investment that will yield valuable results. When stakeholders understand the significance of their contribution, they are more inclined to provide the support you need.
