During this interactive session, participants will be guided through a Grant Readiness Assessment Tool, which evaluates organizational strength across key areas funders look for, including:

-Mission & Strategic Alignment – Is your mission clear, current, and aligned with community need?

-Data & Evaluation Capacity – Can you demonstrate impact with evidence?
-Fundraising Infrastructure – Do you have diversified revenue and a development plan?

Participants will learn how funders assess organizational capacity beyond the proposal itself and why readiness matters in both securing and sustaining grant funding. Through group discussion and self-assessment exercises, attendees will identify strengths, uncover gaps, and begin building a practical action plan to improve their competitiveness.

Learning Objectives: By the end of this session, participants will:

-Understand the five core pillars of grant readiness 
-Identify organizational strengths and areas for improvement
