CEO CORNER
 
Without further ado, we are proud to report that "Grant Writing 101" and "20 Ways to Diversify Your Fundraising Strategy" are now available online for your on-demand viewing. For just $9, you can take a class and increase your knowledge, all within the comforts of your own home or office. As a bonus, you can view portions of these online workshops FREE!
 
Our primary mission at Grant Source is providing affordable, grassroots consulting solutions that help you bring your nonprofit ideas to life! If after doing a little research and taking a few classes you find that starting a nonprofit isn't for you, then you haven't spent your life savings chasing a dream that has zero value after it's all said and done.
 
To keep services affordable, we use our own skills and resources. The workshop presentations are developed in-house, avoiding the use of expensive consultants, web designers, and videographers. We've created a product that is rich in information. To us, this is what is most important.
 
So, enjoy the learning. Share the news with your colleagues and friends. And, good luck in your future nonprofit business endeavors!
