Grant Writer
Grant Writing, Grant Readiness, & Program Development
Helping non-profit organizations secure funding for vital work in their communities is my favorite type of writing work. I enjoy working with non-profits, small businesses, and individual artists to find grant opportunities and apply for grant funding.
Locating funding sources can be time consuming and frustrating, especially if you don’t know where to look or lack the time to commit to the task. You could spend days, weeks, or months researching grants and attempting to find funding opportunities that fit your organization. I have finely honed research skills and access to subscription-based databases with information about grant funding sources.
The Key to Successful Grant Applications
An organization’s objective must align with the grant’s specification to be eligible for funding. Matching the organization to the right funding source is vital to success. I have taken grant writing courses that have covered this in depth, and I know where to look for local and national foundation grants, and government grants from local, state, and federal government programs.
Foundation and government grants require applicants to adhere to strict guidelines. Failing to do so usually results in denial of grant funding. I have the necessary training, tools, and experience to create a persuasive and polished proposal that adheres to the guidelines of the specific grant.
