Project Overview
To scale our innovative offerings and accelerate our organizational growth, we are requesting support in the area of Grant Writing/Development. We're looking for an experienced Grant Writer to help us identify funding opportunities and submit grant applications. It would also be helpful to have a grant proposal template and guidance on where to search for grant opportunities.
As a volunteer, you will be responsible for:
1. Conducting the full range of activities required to prepare, submit, and manage grant proposals to foundation and corporate sources,
2. Research on existing and new fellowships, and prepare application materials for submission.
3. Support the Show and Heal Executive Director prepare for meetings with potential donors, coordinating and following up on the progress of submitted proposals, and assisting with other fundraising projects as requested.
As a volunteer, you will become instrumental in assisting us to increase our impact on youth in the realms of diversity education and mental health (learn about us: https://www.wptv.com/news/region-c-palm-beach-county/greenacres/teacher-gives-students-lesson-in-diversity-through-non-profit-show-and-heal). We've self-funded and progressed thankfully to interns since 2016 (first as a YouTube channel then nonprofit established in 2018). We are on a small scale, and truly to elevate to the next level, we are grateful for any support in grant writing so we may fulfill our focus areas in strategic planning and increased organizational outreach.
We are a team of mental health counselors, social workers, teachers, nonprofit directors, grant writers, and other professionals in the field who will all provide input and supervision depending on the assignment.
Nonprofit Overview
Show and Heal is a nonprofit organization established in 2016 by a public school teacher to build resilience in youth through Education, Inclusion, and Advocacy. At Show and Heal, we envision a world where every child belongs, as we foster a future where similarities and differences are embraced and mindfulness and self-care education are accessible to all.
Today, Show and Heal is leading holistic healing and mindfulness initiatives that destigmatize mental health for the youth. Via social media we are sharing the wisdom and beautiful diversity within India (including the most socially excluded communities) and how interconnected we as human beings are.
Through our yoga and diversity education offerings, videos, interviews, and children’s books, we break stereotypes and support youth in their holistic healing journey towards self-awareness, so they may show their authentic selves and heal their communities!
Our mission is to build strong children so they feel loved, accepted, and included. Once children learn to love and accept themselves, they will understand how to empathize with others. Genuine compassion, acceptance, and celebration of the diversity and individuality within each of us can then be realized.
