Keep at It! Persistence & Motivation Are Key
Public Safety Grants Consulting

  • If you read no other tip on this page, read this one: DON'T GIVE UP!
    • The grant process can be frustrating, but it is doable. Kurt and CHIEF Grants are here to help you along, so use these resources and keep at it.

  • "No" does not mean "never". Most grant writers get rejected more times than they ever get funded. A squeaky wheel eventually gets oiled, and persistence and practice make a successful grant writer.

  • Many grants get rejected simply because the funding source ran out of money. There's always next year and there's always another grant. Review, revise, update and resubmit it or, send it to Kurt and he can assist you in polishing it up. This is a great timesaver.

  • Grant funding can be used for some administrative costs,
    • depending on the grant and its rules of use. You may be able to use the grant to cover costs of administering the grant, or in some cases even the costs of applying for the grant (eg, the cost of a grant writer).
