Grant Research is the crucial first step in the grant-seeking process, helping to ensure that the time and effort spent on proposal writing are directed toward the best opportunities.
Before researching, we gather key details about each client:
• Mission and programs
• Funding needs and priorities
• Geographic focus
• Populations served
• Past funders
Our consultants search grant opportunities using tools like:
• Foundation Directory Online (Candid)
• Grants.gov (for U.S. federal grants)
• GrantStation
• Instrumentl
• Local community foundation websites
• State and municipal government portals
For each prospect, we:
• Read eligibility criteria carefully
• Check past grantees and average award sizes
• Note application deadlines, formats, and contact information
Our consultants create a custom list or tracker including:
• Funder name and focus area
• Application process and deadlines
• Notes on alignment with client goals
• Priority ranking (e.g., high-potential, long-term lead)
Grant Writing involves crafting persuasive proposals that clearly explain who the applicant is, what they want to do, why it matters, and how they will execute their project or program.
