Jacqui answers the following:
1. Are grants only available for 501 c organizations, or are their grants available for for-profit organizations and solopreneurs?
2. We know you have successfully written grants for others for their mission and have a perspective from both sides of the grant writing table. Share that experience with us.
3. Can grant money be used to pay the salary of the person managing the non-profit?
4. What are the drawbacks of applying for grants on a D.I.Y. basis?
5. Applying for a grant often involves a lot of work to meet the requirements of the grant criteria. That being said, because of the work involved, grant writers often have to repeat themselves explaining to the unaware public the costs involved in the grant application process. Can you speak to these costs?
6. What about asking a grant writer to write the grant and getting paid out of the grant proceeds?
7. Is there anything else you would like to share?
