John Birks' EJG2G Proposal Template

I've carefully read through the EJG2G Application Instructions and developed a proposal outline and template for the APPLICATION WORKPLAN, which is the body of the proposal.  Throughout the document, I provide input on how to fill out the many sections of the proposal and provide pre-made tables in Word to make it easy to fill in things like the Timeline, Budget and Logic Plan.  Basically, you can take this document, fill in the various sections, deleting my comments along the way, and have a final APPLICATION WORKPLAN.  It also includes a description, along with some pre-made forms, of all the other documents you will need to upload on Grants.gov.  However, be sure to read the EJG2G RFA and EJG2G Application Instructions for yourself.  

Here is the Microsoft Word template:
