Grant Writing and Program Evaluation
Exclusive Fall Newsletter
Greetings!
Fall is my favorite season of year. We're as busy as the squirrels. But instead of walnuts, we're gathering data for evaluations, collecting and storing grant samples, and preparing our homes for the coming colder weather.
 
Our office is bustling with writing projects and data analysis. Like most businesses in the current economy, we're doing more with fewer people. 

In spite of all the challenges we are so thankful for our loyal clients and many longtime friends and colleagues who will receive this newsletter. We want to take a moment just to share our joy in coming the season and all the anticipation of the good things that it brings.

Have a wonderful autumn and we look forward to communicating with you again soon!

Wishing You Success,
Veronica Robbins
Are you aware there are some key California Department of Education grants available right now? Applications for both of the following are due on December 9th.

21st Century Community Learning Centers - Elementary & Middle Schools  - $50,000 - $150,000 per school site plus additional amounts for supplemental programs.

 

21st Century High School ASSETs  - $50,000 to $250,000 per school site plus additional amounts for supplemental programs.

 

These funds are for schools that meet eligibility requirements for the Title I Schoolwide Program. Federal legislation mandates that competitive priority be given to applications serving Title I Schoolwide Program schools in need of improvement (Section 1116). To meet the competitive priority, applications must be jointly submitted by local educational agencies (LEA) receiving funds under Title I, Part A, and community-based organizations or other public or private, entities. 

 

We have written many successful 21st Century grants for school districts all around the state so if you need grant writing assistance, we want to talk to you!

Our grant samples site has expanded dramatically. For a small annual fee you get access to the grant sample library and other resources, including two of our ebooks that we sell at our online store. Right now we offer 250 grant samples in 14 categories, as well as numerous useful grant templates and section samples. We even add to the collection every week so the value of this resource is always rising.

If your organization depends on customers, and if your customers are people, you can't afford to ignore social media. 

My staff has worked diligently to develop social media skills here at CRR. We're so serious about this work that I took our consulting team to the Blog World Expo in Las Vegas last year. This conference included many of the leading visionaries in social media. Our excellent work in social media resulted in CRR being given the opportunity to pitch our services to a large international company. We won the contract and now handle all of the client's social media interactions. We work behind the scenes doing blogging, tweeting, and various other social media functions. Our success in social media is measurable and we are seeking to expand this side of our business.

If your organization is ready to expand its online influence and leverage the power of social media; we are ready to partner with you.  Please me a call about your plans.
