--- Grantwriting A to Z workshop attendees


I just wanted to thank you for .... such a fantastic workshop on researching and writing grant proposals Margolin provided a wealth of useful and easy to understand information. The presentation was clear, concise, and well-organized. The handouts and slide presentation were perfectly coordinated and Margolin is an experienced and engaging presenter. I learned more in that three-hour workshop than I have in the last seven years trying to navigate the murky and unfamiliar waters of grant writing. Before the workshop I was intimidated and almost resentful of the process. Now? I have a straightforward road-map to creating effective grant proposals that will greatly enhance our chances of securing important funding for our non-profit documentary projects. Even better, I can share this information with the other members of my team so that we can collectively achieve greater success. Thank you again for programming this important workshop. I must confess that I was on the fence about attending that morning but I am so very glad I did. I feel energized, focused, and excited to move forward.

Hi Judi, 

Thank you so much for a great workshop tonight! I truly believe you have helped to put us on course for our strategic plan. Lots to think about, but all exciting! You are great, and I will definitely keep you posted on our progress - and probably reach out to you with questions as well!

It was truly a pleasure  to spend the morning hours with you in New London for “How To Craft A Proposal to a Foundation”. Your disciplined, creative approach was an excellent warm-up for me in getting back to my interests in nonprofit fundraising.
