Essential Skills and Strategies for New Grantmakers (ESS) is a comprehensive, nationally developed, curriculum which will provide upstate New York grantmakers with the skills and tools to be more effective in their work, and increase their impact for the nonprofit organizations that benefit our communities.

Essential Skills and Strategies for New Grantmakers is for grantmakers who are relatively new to the field (less than two years) or for more seasoned grantmakers who are looking to deepen their knowledge and sharpen their skills.
