"Develop Your Theory of Change For Use In Attracting Funding"
A live hands-on workshop for your business

Presented By Social Outcomes and Online Business Lift-Off
Getting funding for your business (such as a grant) could make an amazing difference to your business and the people you serve. But funding can be hard to get … especially grants … partly because everyone else wants one and partly because many people don’t know exactly what is involved in successfully applying for one.

Now grant and other funding applications are never a sure bet for any organisation. But if you want to increase your chances of success when applying, you need to be able to do one very important thing ....

You must be able to clearly describe how what you do makes a difference for the people you serve AND how you’ll measure that difference (so you can prove it was a success).

By using the Theory of Change (ToC) framework, you can help you carve out a pathway for success by: 

Convincing stakeholders of the viability of your project 

Offering a thorough and complete understanding of the project you submitted for consideration. 

Outlining clear deliverables along with a roadmap for completion. 

In short, implementing a “Theory of Change” is crucial–especially as stakeholders continue to demand more extensive information and methodologies for complex projects. Which is why in this workshop, Sandy Blackburn is going to teach you the “Theory of Change” process and help you develop a first draft of your own Theory of Change.

What's Involved In Developing Your Theory of Change
In this hands-on workshop, Sandy and Trudy will work with you to develop your own Theory of Change that you can use as a blueprint to attract funding for your programs and projects.

Developing your “Theory of Change,” will help you determine:

The viability of your proposal 

Specific goals, strategies, and milestones for your project 

Connections between actions and outcomes

Are you struggling with these common problems?
Typically, many organizations struggle with 3 common problems when it comes to writing a theory of change for funding proposals:

  • Lack of evidence of positive business outcomes and measures 
  • A focus in the funding proposal on outputs rather than outcomes
  • Lack of structure and organization for developing a Theory of Change successfully
If you are looking for a way to eliminate these obstacles, Sandy Blackburn’s practical and hands-on workshop will help.
