While I do accept individual (one-time) grant projects, my preference is to establish a long term working relationship with my non profit clients. By forging a strong working understanding of your organization, its mission, strategic plan, and financial needs, I am better prepared to write effective grant applications.

Typically, I contract on a monthly basis. The fee is determined by the grant calendar we create together and the degree of work needed to assemble required information and supplemental materials. Fees are discussed at the start of each billing cycle and expected at the end of 30 days.

For one-time grant projects, I bill on an hourly basis. Rates are determined after an initial consultation. There is no charge for this meeting.

Once I am under contract, you can expect weekly or bi-weekly status reports on grant applications. Additionally, I provide clients with up-to-the-minute information on philanthropic trends and practices so they are kept abreast of developments that may affect them.

My services do include:

• Foundation & Donor Research

o via attendance at workshops, panel discussions, webinars, conferences, and phone introduction
