Services
Grant Writing
Every mission begins with a story, and I help nonprofits and small businesses turn those stories into fundable projects through thoughtful grant research and proposal development. I volunteer with select nonprofits and offer fee-based strategy services for deeper support as your vision grows and evolves with purpose, clarity, and lasting impact for communities today.
I volunteer grant research and proposal writing for a limited number of nonprofits. Fee-based services are available for broader support. When a proposal is funded, I offer optional follow-up services through a separate paid agreement to help you move forward confidently.
How I Work
Funding Readiness Conversation (Free)
Every mission begins with a story, and I start by listening to yours. This brief conversation helps me understand your goals, your readiness for grants, and whether my volunteer or fee-based support is the right fit. It’s a simple first step that brings clarity without requiring any commitment.
Strategic Funding Exploration (Paid)
For organizations ready to explore aligned opportunities, I offer Strategic Funding Exploration—a focused, paid service where I research potential funders, assess fit, and outline realistic next steps. This gives you a clear, purposeful pathway to pursue grants without guesswork or wasted effort.

Impact List:
