What is it like working as a Grant Writer?

May 2022
Interesting and Inspiring Support Role to Mobilize Programs.

Great Community.
Grant Writer in Gloucester:
Pros: The Cape Ann community is quirky, caring and collaborative. Great place to live and work

September 2019
It's great, but I would like more clients.
Grant Writer in Washington:
Pros: I set my own schedule. My commute is walking. down the hall to my office. I am not contributing to pollution, I save on gas and I don't arrive at work already stressed out from dealing with traffic. I also save on wardrobe.
Cons: I have to work at getting clients.
April 2019
Great job just not enough pay to stay.
Grant Writer in Lebanon:
Pros: Work environment, my coworkers and my work schedule. The location of the shelter is exactly 3 blocks from my house, so I can walk all year long. My Executive Director is the best person in the world to work with and for.
Cons: The pay. The people that we assist on a daily basis, makes more money than I do.
January 2017
Family.
Grant Writer in Richmond:
Pros: Cost of Living.
Cons: Drugs.
July 2016
Funding Youth Opportunities at a Personal Cost.
Grant Writer:
Pros: The collaboration with colleagues across the organization that writing and managing grants requires, is undoubtedly one of two special qualities of my job--the second being the opportunities (although limited) to interact with youth and families served by the organization.
Cons: The monotony and lack of opportunity to participate in the creative exercises of program development and/or service delivery I write about. Equally unpleasant and disheartening is my grant reporting responsibility when involving poorly managed projects or programs, and the defacto role I must take on of collecting, tracking, and aggregating data, in order to positively frame conclusions for the report.
