BUILD A PROPOSAL IN A DAY
can be a challenge
program priorities
I see people chase money all the time because they’re stressed to secure funding without having researched or understood the priorities of the grant-making organization.
Your proposal is one part strategy and one part storytelling, so you don’t have to use jargon and overly complex language. You want a clear outline of your project’s goals, objectives, and expected outcomes in a way your funder can understand.
crucial relationships
Attend networking events and reach out to program officers for guidance. Allocate time to sign up for those coaching calls, webinars or meet and greets with program managers and government officials.

“It is with immense gratitude and excitement that we share the impact Nicole Beatty has had on our charity, especially in securing a critical $750,000 grant from the federal government. This generous grant will be instrumental in scaling up our employment social enterprise to new heights."
Nicole Beatty's expertise and dedication were truly remarkable throughout this process. Her strategic guidance and meticulous attention to detail were key in navigating the complexities of the grant application. Nicole's deep understanding of our mission and vision for empowering individuals through employment opportunities shone through in her advocacy efforts.
Thanks to Nicole's tireless efforts, we successfully secured the $750,000 grant, which will directly support our efforts to expand our social enterprise.
