Grant Writing & Research
Grant Writing & Research
The nonprofit sector is incredibly competitive with funders expecting clear, concise and polished grant proposals along with a unique, compelling mission. In addition, effective research to identify the right funders who match your mission, coupled with knowledge of funding capacity, saves valuable resources.
With seventeen years’ experience writing grants for two nonprofits, Kelly is confident in her ability to effectively capture mission, purpose and heart, then transform the information into a robust grant proposal that will get noticed by those who have the financial resources to advance the mission of your organization.
Graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree from Ohio University in 1988, Kelly used her degree and skills in Communications to author Tools 4 Teens, speak on stages to audiences across the U.S., and lead two nonprofit organizations since 2008.
Fee: $85/hr.
