2007 WORLD PROPOSAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

The World Proposal Championships aim to recognize and promote proposal writing excellence, and to help fundraisers learn, by example, what it takes to create a winning proposal. In November 2002, Metasoft Systems hosted the first ever World Proposal Championships. The competition was a great success, with hundreds of proposals received from around the world.
This year, $5,000 will be awarded to the organization that submits the winning proposal, and the top 100 proposals will be showcased online.
Trevor Skillen, President & CEO says “We believe that compelling proposals are the foundation of a successful fundraising effort. Metasoft is pleased to be able to give acknowledgement to the deserving individuals who have written world-class proposals for their organizations. In addition, the contest’s resulting showcase of proposals has become a valuable reference tool for fundraisers. While FoundationSearch and BIG Online illuminate funding opportunities for grant-seekers, the World Proposal Championships gives them access to exemplary grant-writing skill.”
Who Can Enter?
Any proposal that has successfully secured a grant for a non-for-profit or charitable organization within the last two years from a foundation, corporation or government body is eligible for submission. An organization may submit an unlimited number of proposals, however only one prize will be awarded per organization.
