Strategy for Funding
Watch the papers!
Devise a funding plan in advance – be prepared for the funding deadlines
Good research and target the correct area for funding – use correct supporting material
Prepare a good proposal (USP - What's unique about your organization?), Correct facts and figures
Being prepared not to apply – only apply for relevant funding opportunities
Build relationships with funders - let them know what you do – invite them to open days etc
IPA Yearbook (Current Edition 45) - Will give all the contacts you need
