The Community Foundation of Southeast Kansas and the Community Health Center of Southeast Kansas (CHCSEK) are, once again, hosting a Grant Writing Workshop to help area nonprofits improve their grant writing skills in the upcoming year. “Many non-profit organizations seek grant funding to bolster their programs or projects, but the act of writing a grant can be intimidating, although it doesn’t have to be,” said Becky Gray, Building Health Executive Director. “This workshop is designed to break the grant writing process down into easily attainable steps, and participants will leave with tangible strategies for their next grant application.” The workshop will take place on Thursday, Feb. 12, from 1-4 p.m. at the Parolo Education Center at CHC. In-person attendance is limited to 80 participants, but there is an option to attend via Zoom. “This will be the second year we’ve collaborated with CHCSEK on this workshop, and we received a wonderful response last year,” said CFSEK Program Coordinator Kara Mishmash. “This workshop helps attendees gain confidence in completing various types of grant applications, with a particular focus on CFSEK grant applications and evaluation processes so applicants can better understand our expectations and how we work. Our hope is that these workshops will enable nonprofits throughout the CFSEK service area to submit stronger applications and secure funding to improve all facets of life in southeast Kansas.” For more information and to register online, visit SoutheastKansas. org/Seminar, or call the CFSEK office at 620-231--
