Build a fundable grant proposal section by section
Grant proposals are evaluated against strict criteria, and a weak statement of need or a vague evaluation plan can sink an otherwise strong project. This builder assembles a complete proposal: project summary, statement of need, goals and objectives, methodology, evaluation plan, a budget narrative that totals your line items, and organisational credentials.
How it works
The tool maps your inputs onto the architecture funders expect. It writes a concise project summary, frames the statement of need around the problem and evidence you provide, lists your goals and objectives as discrete items, describes the methodology, and builds an evaluation plan from your indicators. It sums every budget line into a total request and pairs it with a short justification, then closes with your organisational background. Everything is stitched into one ordered document you can adapt to a specific funder’s template.
Tips and example
- Open the statement of need with a hard fact, such as
1 in 5 local children leave primary school unable to read fluently, then cite the source. - Write objectives as SMART targets:
Deliver 200 reading sessions to 80 children by July 2027. - Justify every major budget line in the narrative, especially staff time and any overhead or indirect costs.
- Tie your evaluation indicators directly to your objectives so the funder sees a clean line from goal to measurement.
