Getting organized to write the
proposal...
Throughout the proposal writing stage, keep a note
book handy to write down ideas. Never throw away written ideas during this
stage. Maintain a file labeled "Ideas" and review the ideas periodically.
The file should be easily accessible. You should finish gathering
documents, such as articles of incorporation, tax exemption certificates,
and bylaws, before you begin writing.
The Basic Components of a
Proposal
There are eight basic components to a
solid proposal package:
- The
proposal summary
- Introduction of organization
- The problem
statement
- Project
objectives
- Project
methods or design
- Project
evaluation
- Future
funding
- The project
budget
The Proposal Summary
The proposal summary outlines the
proposed project and should appear at the beginning of the proposal. It
could be in the form of a cover letter or a separate page, but it should
be brief, no longer than two or three paragraphs. The summary should be
written after the proposal so that it will cover all the key points
necessary to present the objectives of the project. This will be the
cornerstone of your proposal, and its initial impression on the reader can
make or break your project, because it is usually the first part of the
proposal read by agency officials and may be the only part read before
they decide to consider your project any further.
The applicant must select a fundable
project which can be supported in view of the local need. Alternatives, in
the absence of Federal support, should be pointed out. Remember to explain
the influence of the project both during and after the project period.
