Grant Writing Services

What is a Grant Writer?

  • Need funding support for your community initiatives?
  • Desire grant writing support but can't hire a full-time grant writer?
  • Want someone who has years of experience to produce the highest rate of return on submissions? 
  • Are you a non-profit trying to do it all on your own but need some help?


A grant writer is defined as a writer, analyst, strategist, and researcher. Our grant writing focuses on the specific non-profit, organization, program, and/or a clinical researcher to guide them in a successful funding plan.


Even when organizations have their own grant support, there’s often a lack of time and depth available to find more funding and fully guide a new proposal. We help all institutions and professionals who need support. The benefits of hiring a grant writer at $80/hr include:

  • Outcome driven with on time submissions
  • Experience in researching and writing funding proposals
  • Knows the ins and outs of various application systems

What is a Funding Matrix?

We develop priority funding matrices to assist non-profit organizations to strategically apply for federal and non-federal funding to supporting their initiatives.  The matrix provides a general landscape view of funding possibilities as well as helps to narrow a scope of work.  In addition, the matrix may also uncover aspects not fully realized prior to the research. Essentially, a funding matrix is a good centerpiece for discussion and strategy building for:

  • Content Specific Funding
  • Priority Assessment
  • Literature Reviews
  • Grant Writing
  • Grant Submissions
