Grant and funding storytelling

Write your story and get funded

For founders, community groups and not-for-profits, turn your project into a fundable story. Talk it through and the mentor helps you shape the pitch, answer the grant questions and line up your letters of support, so you can chase grants, investors or a community round with confidence. If getting your story in front of journalists and the public is part of the plan, the Mastering Media Workshop below walks you through pitching to the media and using coverage to build momentum for your cause.

Funding goes to the ones who tell the best story and turn up with the right documents. This walks you through both, one step at a time, whether you're chasing a grant, an investor, or a community or family-and-friends round.

  • It shapes your funding story. The need, the why, the what, the how, the dream, and the one-minute pitch, built up piece by piece so it actually holds together.
  • It answers what funders really ask. The questions behind the application, in the words assessors are looking for.
  • Then it writes the material for you. An elevator pitch, a media release, letters of support, an investor one-pager, and social posts, tailored to the kind of funding you're after.

You go from a good idea to a fundable one, with the paperwork done.
