Prospect Research

Prospect Research should be the first step for a nonprofit starting up a grants program. Through thorough Prospect Research, I identify the potential number of funders aligned to your mission, and from there we can determine from there if grants are right for you.

Established nonprofits can revitalize their grants program through the targeted and in-depth Prospect Research I offer. Unearthing vetted new leads in the public and private domains can re-energize your grants team and up their win rate.

Suggested topics below are only an indication of the kinds of material that can be covered. After an initial discovery call, I can suggest the optimal approach for the team or team member you wish to have benefit.

Compliance & Review

When it really counts, an unbiased, fresh set of eyes to comb through your draft proposal and provide feedback to strengthen your application package is not a luxury – it’s a MUST!

Review will ensure language is clear and free of typos, poor grammar, and jargon; that syntax, nomenclature, and names/dates/places are all in sync with attachments, links, and budgets; and that your message is received loud and clear by the prospective funder. Compliance aligns your package, including your budget, with a funder’s application requirements.
