Streamline Your Grant Writing Process with Salesforce Grants Content Kit
Grant writing is an extremely important job but one that can take hours and hours of work for nonprofits that are already limited on time and resources.
What if we told you there’s now an even quicker and easier way to do it?
Introducing the Salesforce Grants Content Kit!
In this article, we’ll walk you through the Salesforce Grants Content Kit and how it’s a great tool to simplify and streamline the grant writing process for your nonprofit.
What is the Salesforce Grants Content Kit?
It was pioneered by a community of volunteers who took part in the Climate Justice Impact Lab to help community-based nonprofits combat the challenges associated with writing successful grant applications.
The Grants Content Kit stores and organizes grant proposal content in Salesforce, ultimately allowing grant writers to streamline applications and secure funding by recycling the best content.
It’s a set of modules that are designed to save nonprofits time and resources when it comes to the grant application process.
You can:
- Use labels to tag paragraphs, sections and charts from previous applications that are relevant to your project
- Recycle and edit these labeled sections in different grant applications
The benefits of the Salesforce Grants Content Kit
Tell your story and write grant applications more effectively
We know how much brain power it takes to write a grant application from scratch…
The Grants Content Kit can help you draw the best content from other written and successful applications so that you only have to tweak and make it relevant to the application at hand.
It’s a way to make sure all of your applications follow the same messaging and shine the best light on your nonprofit.
Save time and resources
It’s no secret that most nonprofits are strapped for time. While securing funding is vital, there are so many other areas that need some TLC too.
The beauty of the Grants Content Kit is that it frees up time so that you can focus on other parts of the organization to help you achieve your overall mission and help your nonprofit grow.
How we were involved
Back in November, four members of the Client Cloudcare crew teamed up with the Salesforce Impact Lab to co-design and develop the Grants Content Kit.
We were involved in:
- Editing the video script
- Reviewing the naming conventions of fields and tabs in the kit
- Developing ways to expand the tools usage outside of grant applications
We’re super excited (and proud!) to be a part of the development of this tool. We felt the project was a great fit for Client Cloudcare as we continue our mission-driven work to help nonprofits get the most out of their Salesforce investment, and free up their resources to put more attention into the work that matters the most.
