What a Full Day
with FRACAD Looks Like
Every FRACAD live event follows the same proven structure. You will not sit and listen. You will work, review, and leave with a real deliverable.
Morning: Foundations & Diagnosis
The fundability framework in full. You score your organization live across all 7 dimensions. Honest diagnosis of where your gaps are before you ever write a proposal.
Afternoon: Strategy & Tools
Grant writing masterclass, proposal templates, funder research workshop, and budget design. Real tools, real templates, applied to your actual organization during the session.
Closing: Your 90-Day Plan
You leave with a written, personal 90-day grant action plan naming your top funders, your gaps to close, and your first application timeline. Not homework. Done in the room before you leave.
Every FRACAD live event is facilitated by Blessing Mene personally. Not a delegate, not a junior trainer. Blessing brings his full 12 years of fundraising experience, his global network, and his direct, no-nonsense teaching style to every city. The experience you get at a live event is the same quality as a private coaching session — at a fraction of the cost.
