Negotiating and Calculating Indirect Rates
for Grant Applications Workshop
NOTE: This workshop was originally scheduled for Nov. 27, 2018. It has been rescheduled for Jan. 9, 2019.
Most private and corporate foundations prefer to fund programs over general operating expenses. At the same time, nonprofits know that every program will consume a certain amount of general operating costs, including non-program staff time, space, utilities, and accounting.
Setting an effective indirect rate can mean the difference between a program being financially successful and consuming more resources than originally anticipated.
This workshop will demystify the process of determining, negotiating, and calculating indirect rates for private foundation and corporation grant applications. Attendees will learn what items typically qualify as indirect costs, how to negotiate the rate, and what to do if a grant application does not explicitly ask for indirect costs to be included as part of the project budget.
Objectives:
- Understand the importance of including indirect costs in a program budget.
- Identify project budget line items that qualify as indirect costs.
- Set an indirect cost percentage for your organization.
- Learn to negotiate an indirect cost rate with a grantor.
When:
January 9, 2019

Bob Marovich, Independent Grant Writer
