Welcome to Our Nonprofit Book Club!
Are you ready to unlock the secrets to securing more grants and funding for your nonprofit? Join our book club, where nonprofit professionals, leaders, and enthusiasts gather to explore books that empower us to grow, fund, and transform our organizations. This month, we’re thrilled to announce that our book club selection is Launching a Successful Grant Program by Alesha Mathis—an absolute must-read for anyone looking to master the world of grant management.
Why We Chose This Book
Grants are a vital source of funding for nonprofits, but securing them can feel like navigating a maze without a map. That’s why Launching a Successful Grant Program is the perfect choice for our book club. Written by Alesha Mathis, an experienced nonprofit professional and founder of Mathis Nonprofit Services, this book provides a step-by-step guide to building a successful grant program from the ground up. It’s packed with actionable advice, real-world examples, and practical tools that will help you go beyond just writing a compelling proposal. Whether you’re a one-person development team or a seasoned nonprofit leader, you’ll learn how to strategically plan, manage, and sustain grant-funded projects.
We selected this book because it addresses one of the biggest challenges faced by nonprofits today: turning good intentions and mission-driven projects into fundable programs. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the complexity of the grant process or wondered why your proposals aren’t hitting the mark, this book will change the way you approach grant management.
