GRANT READINESS
Protect your organization's reputation: Before writing or submitting grants, ensure you are set up for success! My grant-ready toolkit will prepare your organization to be grant-ready.
GRANT RESEARCH
From a single targeted search to a complete Grant Funding Strategy,
I help organizations determine the best-fit opportunities to pursue that make the best use of their available resources.
GRANT WRITING
Focusing on only the opportunities your organization is most likely to win, I write the grants that set you apart from the competition!
GRANT MANAGEMENT
Organization lacking staff time to nurture funding relationships risk losing their funding. Get help with reporting and nurturing funder relationships.
A Grant Funding Strategy is a living 12 to 18-month roadmap for requesting funding with the greatest likelihood for success. These require a lot of focused research and critical thinking skills but pay big dividends! Limiting applications to only those with the highest chances of winning makes sure your resources are properly leveraged. All organizations who are serious about winning grant money must start with one of these living documents and commit to regular updating. This example is 10 pages.
Two samples: An Office memo and a three-page article entitled, "Seven Tips to Improve Your Presentations" showcasing my business writing skills.
In college, I was awarded a three-month Public Relations Internship at the Kimball Art Center in Park City, Utah. The publicist, Alan Seko, tutored me in writing press releases and letters to local organizations. He critiqued my writing, and when my writing improved he had me write for KAC, reviewing everything before it was sent to the publisher. The samples from this internship contain two press releases and three letters to area organizations.
