Grant Writer Job Description

Do you love to write? Do you love to support and be of service to underserved communities? Would you like to work with an Oscar-winning composer? Consider joining this dynamic nonprofit as a grant writer.

The Grant Writer for Inspired Sound Initiative will help raise funds from public and private donors to fund our free-of-charge activities to schools and centers that serve youth and communities with less access to opportunities, care, and resources. You will have the opportunity to work and meet with our organization's founder, Oscar-winning composer Yuval Ron, meet the performing artists of Inspired Sound Initiative, see workshop videos of our highly talented artists, and contribute to making the world a better place! If you live in the LA area, you'll have the opportunity to witness some of the workshops and concerts (which sometimes are not open to the public, making this a rare opportunity to see our work in action) and you will have the opportunity to enjoy interaction with the children and communities we serve!

• Maintain positive relationships with fund providers and other stakeholders.

Bonus points if you have:

• Connections in the corporate charity world and/or with philanthropic donors.
• Experience working on a research team and securing grants in the past
• Experience writing government grants
