Thanks to computers, it is easier to collect and obtain data for a grant proposal than ever before. There’s so much data, though, that it can difficult to determine which data to present—especially when grant applications only allow concise answers.
This webinar explains which data grantmakers are looking for, and where to present statistics and other information within the grant proposal. Multiple examples from actual, funded grant proposals will show how data solves grant writers’ most knotty problems by creating need statements, formulating project objectives, devising evaluation measures, and more.

The Lewiston Altura School District is requesting funding to purchase new kitchen equipment and increase farm-to-school partnerships to provide more fresh fruits and vegetables to students. Their goal is to improve nutrition and student health. Specifically, they seek to purchase ovens that can steam, roast, and bake produce instead of deep frying. This will allow them to buy less canned goods and provide fresher options from local farms. The funds would support the district's mission to "educat[e] to ensure healthy, happy customers" among its 700 students per day across three schools.
This document provides background information and a literature review for a study on United Way of Greater Greensboro's (UWGG) use of Facebook.

Health Insurance Information Needs: How Librarians Can Helpevardell
Today many adults have difficulty knowing how to find a physician, fill a prescription, use and pay for medications, and use health information to make informed decisions about their health.
