- The Center for Nonprofit Leadership at the University of South Carolina Upstate will continue its monthly nonprofit information lunch series “Friday Focus” with guest speaker Elaine Marshall on August 15 from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. Anyone with an interest in nonprofit organizations, including board members, volunteers, employees and other interested parties, is invited to attend. Participants are asked to bring their own bag lunch to the event, to be held at the Community Education and Outreach Center, 325 S. Church St. in Spartanburg. Reservations are not necessary. Starting at noon, Marshall, director of sponsored awards with USC Upstate, will discuss seeking and securing grants. “The session will address the three main components of grants work: research, preparing proposals and successful submission,” says Marshall.

The degree prepares graduates for careers in management and administrative positions within a wide variety of nonprofit organizations such as social services, youth activities, health, the environment and the arts.
