Discover what funders are looking for in nonprofits seeking grants and how to find potential funders. This session will be presented by Ivonne Simms of Candid Learning.

We will demystify some of the biggest misconceptions about the grant process and share some key resources from Candid. You will learn the 10 most important things you need to know about finding grants, including: who funds nonprofits and what are their motivations, what funders really want to know about the organizations that are seeking funding, and how to identify potential funders and make the first approach.
