| The Odds... The fewer the applicants the greater your chances are to receive the award or grant. One of the best sources is your own professional organization. This is not to say that the opportunities are not competitive. However, you can certainly narrow the field AND have a better chance of matching just what the funder/organization is looking for by applying to an organization with which you already have a relationship. Check out the Recommended Web Sites and the information below.
