Jennifer F.
Grant Writer & Consultant
I help mid-sized nonprofits grow sustainable grant revenue without the cost or management burden of a full-time hire. With more than a decade of professional grant writing and grants management experience, I partner with organizations to strengthen their funding pipeline, improve proposal competitiveness, and create systems that make grant revenue more predictable and less reactive. In my most recent full-time role as Senior Grant Writer for a statewide youth arts organization, I secured more than $700,000 annually in foundation and corporate funding and helped secure over $1 million each year in public contracts. Today, I work with nonprofits on a contract basis, typically supporting teams 5-15 hours per week in ways that expand capacity and reduce internal workload. I can either extend an existing development team's reach or manage the grant writing and grants management function directly - depending on what best supports the organization's structure and goals.
