Writing Hints:
Include
specific information on the population or clientele that your project is
focused on.
Exactly
who are the clientele? Who is included in the clientele group?
In what ways
have you already had contact with the clientele group?
Can you show
that you have the support of the clientele group to move ahead with the
project?
In what ways
have members of the clientele group been involved in the preparation of the
proposal?
What other
agencies are involved with this clientele group (and have these other
agencies been included in your proposed project)?
It's important
for the funding agency to see how much the clientele group has been involved
with the project and the preparation of the proposal. (Sometimes a project is
funded and then the director finds that the clientele group does not want to
be involved!! Don't let that happen to you.)
Be sure to
clarify why it is important for the funding organization to be concerned about
your clientele. Your proposal should clearly indicate how assisting your
clientele is in the best interests of the funding organization.
