Grant Writing & Funding

Register now at grantwritingandfunding.com/mentorship-webinar.

In this episode, Holly Rustick discusses why freelance grant writing is one of the most powerful and recession-resistant skill sets nonprofit professionals can develop. She explains how building a stable freelance grant writing business allows you to take control of your financial future instead of relying on a single employer for retirement.

Holly walks through the common financial challenges nonprofit professionals face, how to start thinking like a CEO with your freelance income, and the retirement investment options available to self-employed grant writers. She also shares strategies for creating predictable income through retainers, diversifying income streams, and protecting your time so you can build a sustainable grant writing business that supports both your present and your future.

If you’ve ever wondered how freelance grant writing can lead to financial freedom and long-term security, this episode will show you how to start building toward that future today.
