Grant Proposal Review

Our nonprofit is searching for an experienced grant writer to assist our team in reviewing previous grant proposals, making improvement and adapting them to specific grants we are seeking support from.

To implement this grant auditing and updating project, we'll need two meetings with a volunteer. In our first meeting, we will provide you with a copy and review the application draft with you. We'll align on expectations and agree on the project timeline. Next, you'll review our document using the track changes function checking for inconsistencies and continuity errors, and incorporate changes for the targeted funder to share with us. The project will conclude after up to two rounds of edits which the volunteer will make the agreed-upon changes to the document or can continue as the volunteer wishes.

Emergency management is entering a transformative new era—and in this time of great change, World Cares Center (WCC) must be the north star guiding our path forward. The President’s recent Executive Order on Decentralizing Federal Disaster Response marks a pivotal moment for our nation, as FEMA redefines its core mission to focus more on support than direct response, realign regional footprints, consolidate overlapping functions, and rebalance roles between the federal government and state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) entities.

As FEMA Administrator Hamilton aptly stated, “Our job is to help our partners be prepared—not to lead every disaster. We must build capacity at the state and local levels and be ready to support from behind.” This policy shift emphasizes the critical importance of local leadership, financial autonomy, and efficient, collaborative disaster management. It is here that the role of World Cares Center’s programs, especially the Collaborative Disaster Volunteer Credential and its framework, becomes even more crucial.

The demand for our specialized training and support continues to rise, with communities across the country eager to enhance their disaster preparedness and response capabilities. However, the funds necessary to sustain and expand our programs have not kept pace with this increasing need. Without the financial backing to scale our efforts, we risk falling short of meeting the urgent demands of the very communities that rely on us to navigate the complex landscape of disaster management.
Your support of World Cares Center is not only an investment in disaster readiness; it is a commitment to building stronger, more resilient communities. We are at the forefront of empowering local leaders and organizations to take charge of their own disaster response, ensuring that we are all better equipped to respond quickly and effectively when crises strike.

We respectfully ask for your generous contribution to help us continue and expand our vital work. With your support, we can ensure that local communities are fully prepared, equipped, and ready to lead the way in disaster response, in alignment with the critical policy shifts that are reshaping the emergency management landscape.

We have a dedicated team member for the project who will provide you with the document that needs to be reviewed in Microsoft Word shareable format. We'll also send you the proposal and application guidelines.
