Letter of Inquiry/Grant Proposal Letter

Write a letter of inquiry for a real or hypothetical program that you are trying to obtain support for. This should include a brief introduction of who you are, what you are proposing to do, and how much money you are requesting. This should be followed by a description of the project. This should be 500 to 1000 words in length. Your Letter of Inquiry will propose a program that addresses a societal issue related to aging. This assignment will require creativity on your part. Think about a real world solution to an issue that older people face. This assignment can be based on a completely hypothetical program, or based on an existing program. You do not need to actually implement this idea – but it should be feasible within the budget you propose. The budget is just your best guess based on the equipment and staff needed. Generally, the facility you use already exists – most grants fund nonprofit organizations that already have the staff and facilities, but need money to cover the extra staff time required to implement the project and any key equipment required. The idea for this written assignment is to propose a program that addresses a societal issue related to aging, and request funding from an organization which will help solve the issue. The agency I am selecting to ask for my grant proposal/letter of intent is: SCAN Foundation Your paper should follow the format of a letter (sample letters attached) and cover the following details: Chose a funding agency Clearly describe the idea Describe how much money you are requesting Describe the context for the issue you are solving Describe the population served Describe how replicable the project may be Introduce who you are, why you are qualified, and your role on the project Describe the roles of others needed to implement the project
