Increasingly, nonprofit organizations face severe pressure to deliver higher community impact while managing rising service demands and inflation with shrinking teams and funding. Scarcity cannot be a permanent business model; it only feeds chronic understaffing that leads to staff burnout and mission drift that organizations encounter while trying to do more with less. 100%
When funding has seemingly dried up and stopgap measures are buying time instead of stability, successful nonprofits prioritize diversifying their revenue streams.
In 2025, giving by foundations grew 5.7% to $117.15 billion, or 19% of the total $617.2 billion giving. Add in government grants and the nonprofit sector has access to at least another $240 billion. Any way you slice it, that's a lot of cheddar! $$$
Nonprofit representatives say the top three barriers preventing them from applying for foundation grants are:
We help nonprofit organizations research and secure grants so they can focus on their mission, not the paperwork.
We work best with organizations that are ready to build a real funding strategy, not just chase one grant at a time. We know what funders are actually looking for, which means fewer wasted applications and stronger odds of winning. Lower risk, higher reward.
Our work is rooted in the belief that nonprofits shouldn't have to choose between funding their mission and bringing it to life. We partner with organizations doing incredible work but don't have the capacity to pursue the grants that could grow it. Our goal is to generate revenue for you without adding to your workload.
We ensure your organization is well-prepared to apply for and manage grants effectively. Follow our checklist for clear program outcomes, meaningful impact metrics and polished materials that present your organization as an ideal funding candidate. Need help pulling any of that together?
We create a Project Planning Toolkit that overviews key details of your project and confirms grant readiness. Using a methodical approach, we then research 100+ grants and filter them down to the top pursuits focusing our efforts on opportunities with genuine potential for success. We also create a Power Prospectus to assist in funder outreach to verify interest and project alignment.
A Funding Strategy is your clear roadmap to the top 10–20 grants to pursue over the next 12–18 months. Included are competitiveness and timeline considerations, eliminating the mystery of how you fund your project. The guided plan includes validated grants to pursue, when to pursue them and in what order.
Using the Project Planning Toolkit, we write compelling letters of inquiry and grant narratives that highlight your impact. From initial funder outreach to grant submissions, we are with you every step to ensure your project has the highest likelihood of securing funding.$
We lead with genuine curiosity and deliver persuasive handcrafted communications. We are members of the Global Grant Writers Collective, a group of more than 500 grant writers who have secured more than $675 million in funding for clients.
