Atlantic Cape’s Nonprofit Resource Center to Hold Community Workshop Series on Grants for Local Nonprofits

MAYS LANDING — Atlantic Cape Community College’s Nonprofit Resource Centers will be hosting an upcoming free community workshop series to assist local nonprofit organizations with searching for and locating available grants, formulating a budget and writing grants.

“This workshop series is a wonderful opportunity to bring the local nonprofits together, whether in person, or virtually, to learn more about funding opportunities, to network with other nonprofits, and to showcase the nonprofit resource centers at our Atlantic City and Cape May campus libraries,” said Janet Hauge, Atlantic Cape’s Director of Academic Support Services.

The first workshop, Introduction to the Foundation Directory, will be presented by Tracy Kaufman from Candid, an organization that connects people who want to change the world to the resources they need to do it, via Zoom on Tuesday, April 18, 3 - 4 p.m. at the Atlantic City campus in room W-204 and at the Cape May campus in room 113.

The second workshop, Fundamentals for Grant Budgets, will be presented in-person by Sherwood Taylor, Atlantic Cape’s Senior Director for Workforce Development, on Tuesday, April 25, 6 - 7 p.m. at the Atlantic City campus in room W-103. Participants at the Cape May campus are able to join via Zoom in room 113.

The third and final workshop, The Art of Grant Writing: Strategies for Success, will be presented via Zoom by Cori Solomon Santone from the South Jersey Cultural Alliance on Tuesday, May 9, 6 - 7 p.m. at the Atlantic City campus in room W-103 and the Cape May campus in room 113.

Free tours of the Nonprofit Resource Centers and an overview of the available resources will be offered at the Atlantic City and Cape May campuses a half an hour prior to the start of each session. You must RSVP for the specific workshop you wish to attend by registering at www.atlanticcape.edu/nrcworkshops.

This free workshop series is provided by the Nonprofit Resource Center to give the public access to the Candid Community, including the Foundation Directory national database complete with information on available grant opportunities and funding history.

This event is being held in partnership with the Atlantic City Community Fund and the South Jersey Cultural Alliance. The Atlantic Cape Nonprofit Resource Centers are funded by the Cape May County Bizhub, the Atlantic Cape Foundation and ThriveAC Fund.
