Blink Charging’s Post

International Grant Professionals Day is a time to reflect on and celebrate the contributions of those who work with grants to support and sustain our communities. There are over 1,000 federal grant programs offered by 26 different grant-making agencies, awarding more than $500 billion annually (per Grants.gov - https://lnkd.in/gjXeJkqd). In addition, if only 10-30% of grant proposals are funded each year, over $2.5 trillion are being written by grant professionals annually. Additionally, foundations and corporations funded grants totaling over $135 billion in 2022 (Giving USA - https://lnkd.in/edQgyeZJ). On top of all of these grants written and managed by grant professionals are the hours spent researching and qualifying appropriate opportunities and working with subject matter experts to determine whether grants are a good fit for a program and whether an organization is ready to apply. If you look around in your life today, chances are you will see the effects of grant professionals in your city infrastructure, schools, arts organizations, and social service providers, just to name a few. So today - we say thank you for all that you do and the experts that you are! #IGPD #GrantProfessional #GrantProfessionals #GrantWriters #GrantManagers #GrantConsultants #GrantMakers #Foundations #LearnGrants
