For this project, the Grant Writer will utilize our resources to conduct thorough grant research. We have access to GrantWatch, a comprehensive grant research database, to identify potential funding opportunities. Once potential grants are identified, we will use HubSpot to input the necessary details, including logins, application links, and grant guidelines, to streamline the application process.

In addition to grant research, we provide strategy documents outlining the mission and funding needs of all our programs. These documents will serve as valuable resources to guide the writing process. Additionally, we have past grant documents available to offer insights and examples to inform future applications. These resources will be instrumental in crafting compelling grant proposals.
