Hey there, grant seekers! Let’s dive into a key question many grant makers ponder: How will your program sustain itself once the grant funding is over? It’s a crucial consideration, not just for funders but for you as well, as you launch your project.

Now, here’s the exciting part: there’s no crystal ball to predict exactly how your project will sustain itself before you even start. Grant makers understand this—they know there will be unforeseen challenges and unexpected allies that’ll emerge along the way. However, in your grant application, it’s important to showcase a robust plan for post-grant sustainability.

Here are some thoughtful strategies to consider:

  • Explore other potential funding sources, whether it’s through additional grants or pre-allocated resources.
  • Seek strong community support to keep the momentum going.
  • Leverage support from project partners who believe in your mission.
  • Explore avenues to generate funds through program participation.
  • Tap into fundraising efforts and nurture relationships with perennial donors.
  • Explore revenue streams from services offered or products sold.
