In today’s competitive grant landscape, we need to use every tool at our disposal to tell a compelling story about how infrastructure dollars will positively impact our communities. Data is one crucial component of the grant application process and can help show, in a quantitative way, how funding will make a real impact on the ground.
The right kind of data – when comprehensive, trustworthy, and easily accessible – can give your grant application the edge it needs to win competitive state and federal dollars for your projects. This is especially true when agencies must show how their projects will benefit historically disadvantaged communities – needing numbers, rather than anecdotes – to win much needed funding for those who need it most.
This webinar on Thursday, July 27th at 3:00 p.m. ET discussed how public agencies and consulting firms are using data to win millions of dollars in state and federal grants.
