Grant Writing

Please note that I do not write grants for corporations or individuals–only  nonprofit grant proposals. Clients have included the Cleveland Clinic, Grandview Hospital (Dayton), Clarion Hospital (Clarion, PA), the National Alliance on Mental Illness, Make-a-Wish of Ohio and Kentucky, and many more.

  • Thorough prospect research of potential grant opportunities and development of a customized grant listing/matrix for  your organization.
  • Consulting services to determine past successes (and failures) in grant procurement and development of a grant plan for your organization.
  • Strategic planning to ensure that grant opportunities can and should be pursued and that the organization is prepared and capable of pursuing them. Strings come firmly attached to grant funds, and the funder expects such dollars to be used for the purpose stated in the grant. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. There is no “free money.”
  • Initiating meetings with appropriate staff to determine needs, objectives, goals, activities, and evaluation methods.
  • Writing of grant proposals/applications, letters of inquiry or intent, and post-grant report writing.

Should you wish to write your own proposals, proofreading and editing will be provided.
