Resumo

The Roda de Leitura (Reading Circle) is an initiative of Poesis - Grupo Cultural (Cultural Group) do Alto Jose do Pinho. It works with children from the age of 5 to stimulate their civil and cultural development, through reading, poetry and creative activities. The Roda de Leitura decided to raise funds for their work with children and youth, and for 6 conferences of Reading Groups in Great Recife, to exchange experiences. Two groups of two people wrote grant proposals and presented these to two local grant-giving organisations. They both contributed.

Dicas e lições aprendidas

It is advisable not to operate single-handed. When the entire team is involved in fundraising activities, chances of approval increase.
When writing a project proposal planning is everything.

Revisão de Wilde Ganzen Foundation

This group has experienced that working together can really improve the quality of your proposal. Another strong point is that they immediately realised the necessity of a follow-up and took measures to organise this. If you keep your donors informed they are more likely to contribute again.
