FAQ
I've never written a grant. Will this help?
Yes. The Start Here guide walks through a 7-step process, and every template has prompts that tell you what to write in each section.
Does it include a list of funders?
The Grant Tracker includes a list of free funder sources to start your research. It isn't a paid funder database.
Is this legal or tax advice?
No. These are templates and general guidance, not legal or tax advice.
How do I get the files?
Checkout is handled by Gumroad. You get a download link right after purchase, plus a copy by email.
