Story Matching: Use Your Storytelling Skills for Grant Writing with Christine Hennebury

Did you ever think about the fact that grant writing is really about telling the story of your project?


  • You’re introducing the characters - you, your project, your organization. 

  • You’re giving the context - your community, your skills, your experience.

  • You’re describing the plotline - your ideas, your plans, the steps of your project.

  • You’re illustrating why this story matters - your impact, your growth, and the connection to the funder’s mandate.

  • You’re bringing it all to a satisfactory conclusion.


Since you already know how to tell a powerful story, you can write a powerful grant presentation - it just takes practice!


Join Christine for this Story Matching presentation and we’ll talk about how to make grant writing less intimidating, how to clarify your project’s story to help readers understand it, how to consider (and describe) the positive impact of your project, and how to demonstrate that your project matches the grant criteria and the stated purpose of the funding.


Register for this FREE event at https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/IHuE0z4gRp6E_1USkORTsw 

and join us Saturday, January 3 at 1PM EST on Zoom.


This presentation will be in English but Christine can provide a transcript for you to use with translation software if you wish.


This event is part of the Creating Connections series of presentations, conversations, and workshops from Storytellers of Canada-Conteurs du Canada.
