- All right.
Now we get down to the nuts and bolts
of why you're sending out a grant proposal
in the first place.
How much should I ask for?
You already know that you have a project,
let's say, and now you really want to know.
Say that the grantor says
I give between five and $10,000 in grants, typically.
You want to know, should I go
for five or 10 or eight or six?
And what decides that?
And the answer is really simple.
You're going to have to justify to the funder
why you need this money.
And for that you're going to need a budget.
And so your budget will inform you
as to how much money you should ask.
