Grant Writer | Grant Research | LOI | RFP | For profit | Non-Profit

If your proposals are overdue, your reporting is scattered, and your funding pipeline feels chaotic, you don’t need another writer. You need a Grant Writer & Funding Operations Partner who brings structure, clarity, and control to your fundraising. I support nonprofit founders, executive directors, and program leads by managing the entire grant lifecycle — so you can focus on impact, strategy, and relationships, not just deadlines and documents. Here’s how I support you: ✔️ Grant research & pipeline management — find aligned funders, track deadlines, zero missed opportunities. ✔️ Proposal writing & packaging — compelling narratives, budgets, and attachments that meet funder criteria. ✔️ Funder communication & follow-ups — LOIs, Request for Proposals, updates, thank-you letters and report coordinations. ✔️ Grant calendar & compliance tracking — deadlines, renewals, deliverables, audit-ready files. ✔️ Workflow & document management — Google Drive, Notion and Ms Word systems that keep everything organized. ✔️ SOP creation for fundraising — repeatable processes for research, writing, submission, and reporting. ✔️ Neurodivergent-friendly systems — clear, low-overwhelm workflows for busy EDs and teams. What makes me different? I don’t just “write grants.” I think like a funding partner. I uncover funder questions, streamline your data + stories, and build systems that keep revenue flowing even when you’re in the field. I speak donor, program, and finance — so your proposals are compliant, compelling and complete. My track record: ✔ $430k+ secured/earned supporting mission-driven organizations. ✔ Top Rated freelancer ✔ 100% Job Success Score ✔2000+ hours supporting nonprofits, small businesses, NGOs, and social enterprises. 🛠 Tools & platforms that I use: Microsoft Office | Google Workspace | Instrumentl | GrantStation | Foundation Directory | Notion | Zoom | Sam.gov | Developmental aid| QuickBooks for budgets. If you’re scaling your programs and need reliable, proactive grant support that actually increases funding without adding chaos… Let’s talk! Send an invite or message me — I’d be happy to discuss your fundraising goals.
