Grant Writing & Funding

Is your nonprofit struggling financially—or relying on just one type of funding like grants or fundraising?

If so, this episode is for you.

And guess who’s back on the Grant Writing & Funding podcast? Dr. Beverly Browning—woot-woot!

In this conversation, we explore how nonprofits can build a more balanced and sustainable funding strategy by diversifying their income streams. We discuss how board members can play an active financial role, why even startup nonprofits should implement simple monthly fundraisers, and how to position your organization for credibility by being listed on platforms like GuideStar.

We also cover practical ways to secure startup funding, how organizations can raise $40,000+ within a year, and why your funding strategy should never rely on just one source. Plus, we dive into how social media plays a key role in amplifying your funding opportunities and visibility.

If you’re a nonprofit leader, board member, or grant writer looking to strengthen your organization’s financial health and expand your funding approach, this episode is packed with actionable insights.
