Funding for Nonprofits [WLO: 1] [CLOs: 3, 5]

Nonprofits also rely on grants and contracts, so it is important that you look at all possible funding opportunities to develop, manage, and grow nonprofits. For this discussion forum, you will identify funding opportunities for the nonprofit you created for your Week 3 assignment.
