Common Grant Writing Constraints That Make You Pull Your Hair Out

Knowing how to write grant applications is definitely a skill that is needed in the nonprofit sector.

It is an actual technical skill that you can learn!

But what happens when funding sources create many, many constraints for submitting grant applications?

I’m talking about some of the following constraints:

  • Word limitations
  • Character count limitations
  • Page limitations
  • Font and margin limitations (no, I am not making that up!)
  • Priority limitations
  • And so, so much more

Well, that’s why Teresa Huff of Grant Writing Simplified comes on the Grant Writing & Funding podcast and YouTube show to share how to overcome these constraints.
