To support the Suffield Foundation for Excellent Schools (SFES) grants process, the SFES Grants Committee may offer a special “grant writing” workshop depending upon demand. The goal of the workshop is to help you take your ideas from concept to paper so that your proposal has the best chance of success.
This event will be informal and mostly consist of one-on-one advice. It will be facilitated by SFES Board members. The date, time and location are still to be determined.
