This episode, Holly explains how to write a goal in a grant, what to include in a grant’s objective, and how to put a task in a grant.

The goal of a grant is one of the most important sections of a grant application and is usually where you’ll get the most points.

But what should you include in the goal section of a grant? How should you structure it? And how ambitious should you be?

This episode, Holly explains why this section is so important, how to write a goal in a grant, and everything you need to include in this part of your grants application.

Holly also talks about how to write a grant’s objective, the best way to include a timeline in a grant, and how to put a task in a grant.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

How to write a goal in a grant.
What to include in a grant’s goal.
How to write a grant’s objective.
What to include in a grant’s objective.
How to include a timeline in a grant.
How to put a task in a grant.
Why you need a work plan for grant funding.
What to include in a work plan.

Quotables:

“The goal of a grant needs to include your main outcome while staying grounded on the budget of the grant and the time it will take to deliver. Your budget and time constraints are central to how ambitious your goal can be.”
“An objective has to be SMART, specific, measurable, achievable, relevant or realistic, and time-bound. This is important because when you’re writing an objective it has to be clear on each of these points.”
“Use time-bound terms rather than specific dates. If you use specific dates rather than ‘by the end of year one’ you may have to rework your entire time schedule if your grant is delayed in its approval.”
