Boost Your Grant Writing with Power Verbs: The Secret to Winning Proposals

Grant writing is a competitive field. With hundreds (or even thousands) of proposals vying for the same funding, your application must stand out. But how do you make your grant proposal stronger, clearer, and more persuasive?

The answer: Power Verbs.

In my new e-book, Action-Packed Grant Writing: 400+ Power Verbs for Stronger Proposals, I explain the importance of using impactful language in grant applications. This resource has hundreds of action-driven words designed to transform your proposals from generic to compelling.

Why Word Choice Matters in Grant Writing

Funders don’t just want to hear what you hope to do—they want to see concrete plans with measurable impact. Weak, passive language can make a great program sound uninspiring, while strong, active verbs create urgency and confidence.

Compare these two sentences:

“Our program aims to help youth with career skills.”
“Our program equips youth with essential career skills, preparing them for long-term success.”

The second sentence is more dynamic and persuasive, clarifying that your program will deliver results.
