Grant Writing Essentials for Churches
Hello, my name is Dani Arthur! I'll give you the scoop on all things grant writing, sharing knowledge tailored just for churches and faith-based nonprofits.
This course introduces faith-based communities to the know-how on landing grant funds. As Exousia's co-founder, I share valuable insights into the unique challenges and opportunities in the faith sector. It's not just a job; it's an honor to team up with you to find funding for your amazing programs.
My diverse career experiences include public school teacher, early childhood education program founder & director, plus personal finance content writer and email marketer. In a parallel role, I have partnered with my husband, Rev. Kevin Arthur, in his mission of church planting and pastoring across North America. I juggled roles ranging from administrative tasks to leading Sunday school, directing ladies' ministries, orchestrating fundraisers and special events, even taking the stage as a speaker.
Through prayer, following God's lead, and each incredible experience, I have gained valuable insights into God's Luke 6:38 provision and blessing.
I'm excited to share the knowledge I've gain over the past 7 years as God has blessed our church and local community through grant funding.
