Does anyone know of a good grant-writer?

[brainshrub]

A friend of mine was the only professional videographer that was able to get candid, behind-the-scenes, footage of what was going on at Camp Casey during the Sheehan protest.

She wants to make a documentary of the experience, but we are bumping into funding problems. I have been charged with finding a competent grant-writer for the project.

Please respond to this thread if you have questions, or, PM me if you are interested in the project. This would be a commission-project.

P.S. (While this is not a fund-raising post, if you are one of those "elitist millionaire Liberals" the RW loves to talk about, please consider funding this project.
I've been transcribing the raw footage into text... every time I do so, I need to make sure I have tissues next to the computer because the material is so emotional.)

1. I've written some successful grants before.

Do you have an idea of which foundations you're going to approach, or is that part of the project too? :hi:

2. We know.

I can get more, but we need a pro.

If you think you can do it, and your serious, PM me with your phone number.

4. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to start until January.

Yes, retail hell consumes my life until then. Wish I could help. :(

5. No problem.

How is mod-life treating you?

I miss the mod-forum. It is, by far, the most interesting forum on DU.

I wish there was a way I could visit.

6. All is well.

We miss you. :hi:

8. It suddenly dawned on me:

Does this post break any rules? Maybe I should have posted this in the "employment" forums?

PS: I miss you guys too.
