Grant Writing as a Career

This book is designed to give novice grant writers the behind-the-scenes scoop about what it really means to have career in the grant writing field. Every grant writer has different challenges, different expectations and certainly different way we communicate with clients or organizations. I have always felt that there is no right way to be a grant writing consultant, but there are a million wrong ways to be one.


Caroline Reeder's book is written with her 15+ years of experience and shares honest, useful information. If you are a new or experienced grant writer, this book will give you tips on training, salaries, job searches and more. If you are a writer, former nonprofit employee, venturing nonprofit employee or considering consulting, this book will help you put your best foot forward as you move into an exciting (yes, grant writing is exciting!) career. I had several "a-ha" moments while reading it and appreciated the reminders about seeking clients. I just knew that a book filled with how-to advice for being a grant writer was perfect for Grant Savvy readers! It should definitely be added to your library.

About the Author
Caroline S. Reeder started her career as a grant writer more than fifteen years ago. Her first proposal resulted in a grant of $200,000 for a nonprofit affordable housing advocacy organization. That got her hooked. Since then she has written hundreds of proposals resulting in more than a million dollars in funding for a variety of nonprofit organizations and government agencies.
