 Grant Writting for Dummies CD July 29, 2010
Jennifer Jardine (Oregon)
Does have a lot of information but it needs to have a workbook or PDF downloads to help you keep track of the resources and proceedures. Unless you know shorthand and can write or type as fast as the speaker is reading I recommend the book.
As far as the content - good - but I would suggest researching your funding sources first.
 Solid Overview Combined with Specific Directions for How to Apply June 29, 2010

"Oh, that I might have my request,
That God would grant me the thing that I long for!" -- Job 6:8 (NKJV)
If you are totally new to looking for grants, Grant Writing for Dummies will save you a lot of time, effort, frustration, headaches, and expense. I have been dabbling in grant writing and knew that I was over my head. Any chapter of this well-thought-out book will be worth the book's cost to you.
I particularly liked the idea of becoming a grant reviewer, as a way to obtain a keener understanding of the decision-making process.
I was pleased to see that the book contains a complete example of a grant application narrative, which I found to be very helpful.
In addition, the author refers readers to lots of free resources (both online and off) that are sure to yield better opportunities.
I don't know how successful my future efforts will be, but I can at least be sure to be working on the right things in the right ways.
Thanks Dr. Browning!

Purchased this book with a few others to get started on grant writing for a non-profit. Read the book front to back in less than a week because I enjoyed it so much. I found myself coming into my office each morning and checking out new websites from the book to help me. After reading the book, I truly understand what grantmakers are looking for in a proposal. Thank you so much!

Be Careful when you order your books from this provider. The book I received was not the third edition that is advertised so when I tried to use the book it is the first edition and it did not have the updates I needed.
I have never had a response from the provider. Be careful you get what is advertised.

This book was ok and I was able to understand come of the concepts, but it is not for the dummy who has no knowledge at all of obtaining and writing for grants.
