Strengthen your ability to secure funds and communicate impact.
Organizations that invest in program evaluation and other learning activities have an advantage when it comes to fundraising. Funders want to see evidence of impact, and they want to know that their grantees have the capacity and competency to measure their results. We are uniquely positioned to help agencies translate their results into effective fundraising, particularly in the areas of grant writing (private foundations, corporations, and government) and data storytelling.
We can help you identify prospective funders based on your areas of expertise and program focus. We can assist with strategies for funder outreach and preparing for the proposal submission process. Key strategies include researching funder databases, reviewing 990s, and mapping alignment between funder priorities and your programs.
Once you've identified your potential funding partners, we can assist with grant writing to ensure that you submit the most compelling proposal possible. We'll work with your team to ensure that you leverage internal expertise in program, finance, and development.
Whether to support grant proposals, capital campaigns, digital marketing efforts, or other fundraising approaches, we can help organizations use their data to tell compelling stories about impact. Strategies can include visual impact reports or other analytic methods that highlight outcomes in ways that diverse stakeholders can understand.
We can provide expert training on the grant writing process, spanning from prospect research and preparing for the proposal process to core proposal components.
