City of South Bend Grants, Gifts and Donations Budgets
NOTES: It has been come increasingly important for the City to receive grants as budgets become tighter. Money might be better spent hiring a professional grant writer to bring in more revenue to the City. Grant writing can be complicated and winning a grant involves a great deal of detail, research and professional writing. It's not always best left to department employees who have had no grant writing training and have other duties.
If you as a Citizen would like to learn grant writing to compete for grants for your own non-profit, the St. Joseph County Public Library offers 3 online grant writing courses free to those with a library card. It does require a considerable amount of study and homework.
