There IS a path to more impact and more revenue. Changing the world IS possible.

Grant writers may be talented writers, but to win 5, 6, and 7-figure gifts, you need MORE than writing skills.

Grant writers look at a small piece of the puzzle — we take a holistic approach.

Grant winners (that’s us ;)) use decades of experience, hard-won industry connections, deep strategy, exhaustive research, out-of-the-box thinking, and long-term relationship-building. So you get funding year after year that grows exponentially. Not a one-and-done.

The short answer: No.

The long answer:

We don’t do one-and-done grant writing because we don’t feel that it’s a financially advantageous investment for you or us. Funding is won by consistent, ongoing work and building long-term relationships with funders. This takes time and effort and is only done well with a long-term approach.

You can find many grant writers out there. But the model and solution we offer is completely different.

When you partner with us, we become ambassadors for your organization and toil for funding as though we were a member of your team. The way that we do so is by taking a long-term approach — looking after all your funding requests for 12 months.

What that means practically: we build relationships with funders on your behalf. And if anything new comes up along the way (which happens often) we take care of it at no additional cost.

We have 22+ years of experience in fundraising, worked with dozens of NPOs, have successfully raised over $50 million, and landed 752 grants.

So if you’re a non-profit operating in Canada or the United States, we’ve got you covered. Our thorough discovery and research process has been tried and tested and proven to work — a million dollars over.

But, it’s still possible you’ll show up with something we haven’t seen before. (Fundraising for giraffes in the Arctic? That’d be new for us.)

When you book your discovery call, you’ll be asked for some basic background. If your NPO falls outside the areas of our expertise, we’ll try to recommend a better fit.

No. And don’t let any other grant writer or consultant make this promise to you.

​That said, we have a thorough process in place to make sure we only apply for grants with the highest chances of success.

We use research, communication with the funder, and 22+ years of winning grants to determine which funding opportunities are right for YOU.

If we believe an application won’t be successful, we won’t touch it.

Once an application is submitted, there are outside factors that make or break the deal.

Working with a team of experienced fundraising experts who understand the nuances of the system will improve your chances of success.

Our twelve-month commitment makes sure we’re able to review and research as many funding opportunities as possible on behalf of your organization. Deadlines vary and change every year. With a twelve-month perspective, we can apply with enough time to fully develop your proposal, research the funder properly, work to build relationships with that organization to ensure that your application has a high likelihood of success, and follow up with any post-grant reporting needs.

We become your advocates, your lawyers. We know the only way to get results is through strategic planning, consistency, and a long-term approach. Not last-minute, wild goose chases, or by putting all your eggs in one basket.

Hesitant to commit? You’ll be happy to hear our brand promise:

If you don’t receive at least the cost of your Turnkey Grant Acquisition & Administration package’s annual fee in financial commitments, we will continue to work for free, identifying grants and submitting applications until you do — for up to a year.

(We usually 10x an organization’s investment — or more. That’s why we’re 100% confident in our services and offer you this guarantee.)

Our holistic, long-term approach wins you repeatable 5, 6, and 7-figure gifts.

While we would love to help everyone, we only work with organizations that have:

• Legal charity status in the USA or Canada for at least 3 years 
• Operating budget of $500k+
• Paid full-time staff
• The basic understanding that this is not a “get rich quick scheme” and the drive to invest the time it takes  (typically a year or more) to build a successful funding strategy and implement it
• An incredible dream they want to make happen

Do you check those boxes?

(If you’re not ready to take BIG gifts and use them, we shouldn’t be working together — yet.)

Welcome to the non-profit world! We’re glad you’re here. We need more people like you in the world! :)

Before applying for grants, you need to get crystal clear on:

• Your mission
• Your strategic objectives
• Your financial goals
• Your target beneficiaries
• Your programs

But even with all that, most funders look for a long track record of success before even considering your application and can ask for 2-3 years of financial records as a requirement for submission. 

You’ll likely be competing with long-established non-profits for very limited grant money.

Your success is our success — so if we don’t think that you are grant-ready we simply won’t take you on as a client.

No two organizations are alike, even if they may have similar missions.

A school in Oregon won’t have the same grant opportunities as a school in New York, and even two organizations in the same city will have different opportunities based on eligibility criteria and specific funding needs. 

That’s why the first step in working together is to research the specific grants that align with your organization’s needs and the grant maker’s funding objectives.

At FundSource26, we specialize in identifying and securing grants that align with your organization’s mission and goals. 

We provide a custom Grant Funding Strategy, a 12-18-month roadmap designed to maximize your funding potential. Through our extensive databases and years of first-hand experience, we create a carefully curated list of the best funding opportunities based on your needs and the grant maker’s objectives.

This custom roadmap opens the door to success from the very start, ensuring your organization is well-positioned to secure the necessary funding.

Great Question! 

There are various types of grants to benefit the world of nonprofits.

Here’s the long & short of it:

• Wage Subsidies are financial assistance programs from the government designed to encourage employers to hire and retain workers. Wage subsidies are incredibly helpful when looking for ways to fund those salaries.
• Professional Development/Training Grants fund opportunities for individuals or organizations to acquire new skills or knowledge. They can cover training courses, certifications, or conference attendance.
  
• Capacity-building Grants aim to strengthen your organization’s overall ability to function. They fund strategic planning, staff development, or technology upgrades.
  
• Challenge Grants match funding from other sources, incentivizing donors to give more and give now.
  
• Capital Grants fund the purchase of physical assets, like buildings, renovations, or vehicles.
  
• Equipment Grants specifically fund specialized equipment or technology for a project or general operation.
  
• Research Grants support organizations seeking to solve problems and expand their knowledge of a current issue through research.
  
• Project-Based Grants are awarded for specific, well-defined projects with a clear start and end date.
  
• Seed Grants are smaller awards to help launch a new project or initiative. They are ideal for early-stage ideas or testing a larger project’s feasibility.

When we create YOUR organization’s Grant Funding Strategy, we are going through our 15+ paid databases which include ALL these grants, and finding the ones that best serve your organization’s programs and mission.

You are thinking in the right direction! 

You can’t just wake up one day and decide to jump into the world of grants. 

As in most worthwhile investments, you will need – Preparation, Preparation, Preparation!

To pursue grants effectively, your organization will need to prepare several key components including:

• Mission Statement
• Annual Budget
• Articles of Incorporation
• Bylaws: The rules and procedures governing your organization.
• Board of Directors: Information about your board members and their roles.
• Annual Report (if available)
• Strategic Plans (if available)
• Letter of Incorporation (Federal and Provincial)
• Latest Financial Statements
• Previous Grant Submissions (both accepted and declined, if available): Examples of past applications help us to understand your grant history and improve future submissions.

FundSource26 will guide you through gathering these components and ensure you have everything needed for a successful grant application.

Well, 

How do you measure winning??

At FundSource26, we don’t place a value on win rates because we believe they are simply vanity numbers that don’t fully reflect the success of a grants program.

Instead of focusing on the number of grants won, which can be artificially inflated by applying to less competitive grants, we prioritize the total dollar value earned for your organization. 

We believe that ambition and risk-taking should be rewarded, not punished.

For us, the true measure of success is how much funding we secure for your organization, regardless of the number of applications submitted. 

If you receive a million dollars in funding, it shouldn’t matter how many grants it took to get there. This approach is why we have a flat rate and don’t charge per grant. 

We are committed to maximizing your organization’s financial impact, focusing on substantial and meaningful funding achievements.
