Grant Writing

Securing the Right Funding to Drive Your Mission Forward

At Strawhecker Nonprofit Services, we offer grant research and writing services tailored to match your organization with the best funding sources. Our team brings extensive experience and a heartfelt commitment to supporting nonprofits, guiding you through every step to create compelling proposals that resonate with funders.

Our step-by-step grant writing process

Our structured approach to grant writing ensures that your organization finds, prioritizes, and secures the funding it needs.

  • We begin by conducting an in-depth funding source search, carefully matching your programs and services with the interests of local and national funders. Our search goes beyond what funders say they support; we analyze giving histories to identify funders truly aligned with your goals.

  • Working closely with your team and board, we prioritize funding opportunities that align with your mission. Together, we create a targeted list of high-potential funders, leveraging any connections within your network to increase your chances of success.

  • Based on deadlines and funding cycles, we create a clear timeline for proposal submissions, with an option to cap the number of submissions per month, ensuring your team remains focused and efficient.

  • Our team prepares detailed proposals that meet each funder’s specific guidelines. We work with you to formulate goals, objectives, and program descriptions, using either your data or our own research to present a strong case for support. We’ll also outline plans for sustainable funding, addressing funders’ concerns for long-term impact.

  • We manage all aspects of proposal submission, from obtaining letters of support to duplicating and filing copies. Whether you prefer to submit directly or have our team handle the process, we ensure all steps are covered to meet funder requirements.

  • Our team or yours can manage any necessary follow-up after submission, keeping your proposal on the funder’s radar and ready for consideration.

Audrey is wonderful to work with—always prepared, efficient, and caring. She is deeply invested in our mission and consistently finds new funding opportunities. It’s been a pleasure to work with her and the SNS team.
