Capstone Projects

Grant Proposal Generator

Program: Applied Computing Bachelor's Completion
Host Company: RADD ( Recreational Activities for Developmentally Disabled – Racine)
Location: Racine, Wisconsin (remote)
Student: Nicole Stoesser

RADD is a nonprofit organization out of Racine, WI. They have no dedicated grant proposal writer and lose out on funding due to not applying for grants. My capstone project was a simple program taking their most asked questions for grants and turning it into a grant proposal generator. The program director who is non-technical can open the program, insert the grant name, select which questions are to be answered, and generate a formatted word document that gives them a jumpstart to completing grant proposals to submit.

Due to the target audience being non-technical, my capstone had to incorporate simplistic measures to ensure usability.
