Resident

Six Months of Readiness Support

This is our most supportive option and is designed to get you fully grant-ready! Once we are done, you will be ready to take on grant writing in-house or feel confident in finding a grant writer.

Deliverables

What does $1500-$2000 get ya?
(Price varies based on the size and needs of the organization)

Everything in the Traveler and Neighbor Cohorts
If you have participated in one or both cohorts, you can subtract the cost of the cohort from your readiness package price.

Support and Resources
Six months of Support and Resources. We will schedule one or two virtual calls a month to work through the tools and templates to help get you grant-ready. You will have unlimited email access for the six months.

Constructive Narrative and Messaging
We will work with you to complete the Master Narrative Worksheet which can be used with all future grant applications. It is one convenient spot to answer most common grant application questions.

Outcome and Evaluation Design and Review
We will work on a logic model and help you identify ways you can measure the impact of your programs.

Budgets and Financial Document Overview
We will review your budget and help identify any areas that don't match your mission and program narrative.

Are You Ready for a Grant Writer
We can help you decide if you are ready to bring a grant writer on board and how to find the best person/group for your organization.

Who is it for?

If you have ever said these words, this support package is for you:

“Our organization is ready to bring someone on to help with grant writing.”

“Does someone in our organization need to do grant writing or can we contract out?”

“Are we ready to expand our fundraising to grant work?”

“How do keep track of the grant work we want to do?”

“We have written some grants, but need help expanding that work.”

“I want to bring on a grant writer but don’t know where to start.”

What makes it different?

The Resident Package is one-on-one support for your growing organization. Grant funds can certainly be a part of your funding strategy, and your incorporation of that work will take some time and investment. Jumping straight into grant writing without taking time to be ready can be an expensive and time-consuming exercise in learning that you weren’t ready. This package gets you prepped for effective and efficient grant work. We encourage you to engage as many people as needed from your organization in the training and practice. We partner and task-share with you all along the readiness process.

What will we accomplish together?

  • Writing a beginning draft of your master narrative

  • Creating a running research document to keep up on relevant data related to your statement of need and program design

  • Structuring your prospect research and funder management

  • Building your grant management practices

  • Walking through your intended impact and constructing a logic model

  • Connecting you to other helpful resources beyond grant writing

  • Increasing confidence in your next steps to sustain or grow your organization
