So you’ve won (or lost) your grant. Now what?

You’ve crossed your ‘t’s’ and dotted your ‘i’s’ on your most recent grant application. One of two things will happen. You’re going to get it, or you’re not.

While most information available deals with how to craft a winning application, Imagine Canada's Grant Connect and Keela have teamed up to fill in the blanks for what happens after.

This robust checklist runs through the nitty-gritty details of what to do once your grant application is accepted (or not!), including the critical job of stewardship. Use it to ensure you’re cultivating the best possible relationships with funders and to make your next application even better – regardless of the outcome.

Writing grant proposals is a stressful job. 

You need to make sure everything from the story of your organization to the description of your future projects ties in with the specific requirements for each individual grant. There's a lot of pressure to get it right.

If you don't, you could lose out on important funding.
