Grant Research & Readiness

Services We Offer

Services
We Offer

This service focuses on the front end of grant development: finding the right opportunities and preparing to pursue them well.
  • Clarifies your programs, goals, geography, and capacity so research is grounded in reality, not hypotheticals.

  • Conducts structured grant research across foundations, community foundations, corporate funders, and public sources, with a focus on true eligibility and alignment.

  • Delivers a prioritized list of opportunities with key details (deadlines, funder focus, typical award size, requirements, rationale for fit, etc.).

  • Provides a readiness summary that flags gaps in data, documentation, or evaluation that could weaken proposals, so you know what to strengthen before you apply.

Proposal
Development Review

Proposal Development Review

This service is for organizations that already have a draft (or prior submission) and want to ensure it is as strong, supported, and aligned as possible before it goes out.
  • Reviews the full proposal against funder guidelines, criteria, and stated priorities to assess alignment.

  • Evaluates how clearly the case for support is backed by evidence: needs data, outcomes, program logic, and context.

  • Identifies where reasoning is thin, repetitive, or unclear, and recommends specific ways to strengthen structure and content.

  • Provides detailed feedback and edits so the final proposal reflects both your organization's voice and a research-informed structure.

Multi-Grant Proposal Development

Grant Writing

This service is for organizations pursuing a specific funding opportunity and need one complete, submission-ready grant proposal built from start to finish.
  • Reviews funder guidelines and scoring criteria, then maps a proposal outline directly to submission prompts to ensure every required section is addressed.

  • Writes the full narrative for all application sections and develops a complete grant budget aligned to project scope and funder rules, including budget justification language when required.

  • Ensures alignment between project design, outcomes, and budget logic so the proposal reads as a cohesive, well-supported case for funding.

  • Conducts a final compliance review (formatting, word limits, required components), includes two revision rounds, and delivers a submission-ready narrative, budget, and compliance checklist so you can submit with confidence.

Grant-Ready 
Project Kit

Grant-Ready Project Kit

This service is for organizations that have a program idea and want to turn it into a funder-ready project plan they can reuse across multiple applications.
  • Clarifies project scope (who you serve, what you deliver, where implementation happens, and how many people are reached), then defines goals, outputs, outcomes, and measurable objectives to create a clear program foundation.

  • Develops core narrative building blocks including Project Summary, Statement of Need, Program Design and Implementation Plan, Outcomes and Measurement language, and Sustainability starter language.

  • Creates a budget framework with aligned cost categories and narrative guidance to support proposal development.

  • Delivers a Grant-Ready Project Kit, Budget Framework, and Attachments Checklist so future applications feel intentional and connected, rather than rebuilt from scratch.
