Grant Writing and Compliance Documents Overview

The Grant Writing and Compliance Documents overview provides you with relevant documents to support your grant writing effots. When applying for grants, funders often require supporting documents that verify nonprofit status, financial health, and organizational transparency. SCORE provides these core resources so chapters can respond quickly to funder requests, strengthen applications, and demonstrate accountability. Using these documents helps establish trust with grantmakers and positions SCORE as a reliable steward of charitable funds.
