Grant Award Announcement Promotion Kit

## CONTEXT
When a nonprofit wins a significant grant, the announcement is more than a courtesy; it is a chance to build credibility, attract additional funders, honor the granting institution, and rally the community. Yet many organizations either skip the announcement or post a dry, jargon-filled press release no one reads. A strong grant promotion kit tells the community what the grant will accomplish, thanks the funder publicly in a way that strengthens the partnership, and positions the organization for future support. This prompt builds a coordinated multi-channel announcement.
