I see this pattern all the time: someone starts a nonprofit… and then waits for a grant to come in.

And when it doesn't happen, confusion and frustration start to build.

So today, I want to talk about why starting a nonprofit and then waiting for a grant is one of the biggest mistakes I see and why it keeps so many organizations stuck.

If you've been feeling stuck, hoping the right opportunity will show up, this conversation will help you shift from waiting to building.
