Building Better Bylaws
Wednesday, July 23, 2025
Sarasota Philanthropy Center
1549 State Street, Sarasota
Facilitated by: Whitney Crettol
Bylaws are a nonprofit board’s operating manual. They contain rules that govern both the board’s structure and how it functions. These rules can support a positive and effective board culture, or they can cause confusion and undermine your best efforts. Demystify this important document, learn about the important relationship between state law, Articles of Incorporation, and bylaws; discuss the most recent leading practices; and explore specific examples to assist in developing relevant and understandable governing rules.
Grant Writing: Intro to Successful Grant Writing
Friday, August 22, 2025
Sarasota Philanthropy Center
1549 State Street, Sarasota
Facilitated by: Whitney Crettol
The term “grant writer” is somewhat of a misnomer. Writing grants is just one step in a broader process of program or organizational planning. Securing grants takes skill in research, planning, collaboration, program design, impact evaluation, budgeting, writing, editing, and donor relations.
Grant Writing: Grant Proposals + Interactive Design
Friday, September 26, 2025
Venice Headquarters
601 Tamiami Trail South, Venice
Facilitated by: Whitney Crettol
This workshop takes an in-depth look at each section of a grant proposal, including examples of weak and strong narratives. Throughout the session, participants will apply presented concepts to their own projects. The result will be a draft outline from which to complete the post-workshop homework assignment: development of a boilerplate proposal.
This session will be limited to 15 participants, one person per organization. The additional course fee includes the workshop plus 1-to-1 coaching with up to four hours of consulting time.
