Grant Proposal Editing & Proofing
This is for agencies that have a grantwriter on staff but would like to get a professional outside opinion as to how the grant is written/and to correct it. It is very important that your proposal is clear, concise and conveys your ideas effectively. Bad grammar, spelling mistakes, verbose writing are some of the examples that my affect the flow of your proposal. So do not take chances. We help you improve your proposal by:
i) Checking and fixing the structure of your proposal
ii) Editing for grammar and logical errors
iii) Cutting down unwanted and redundant text
Grant Development
Grants are not a means of getting something for nothing. Rather, they are professional collaborations between an organization whose mission for serving complements another organization's mission for giving. As such, it is important to present requests in terms of your organization's overall goals in order to demonstrate their compatibility with those of a potential sponsor. Program Development is the process by which your organization's request is developed into a fundable program that can be proposed to multiple, appropriate sponsors. If you don't have this in place, we can help.
Grant Research
Possibly more significant than a well-written grant is its submission to an appropriate sponsor. Our professionals conduct research for upcoming grants and funding opportunities that match your mission and for which your organization is eligible to apply. Sponsors have goals, initiatives and dreams just like the non-profit organizations they sponsor. And, no matter how well-written your grant, it has very little potential of being funded if its programmatic or geographic focus, or the amount of the request, are outside the interests of the grant making institution. Thorough research of potential sponsors improves a grant's success rate significantly, avoiding unnecessary efforts and expenses. Our researchers are ready to help.
Grant Writing
Grant writing is a unique animal. Like any field with its own professional jargon, you need to know how to speak the language in order to participate successfully. This includes everything from the standard sections of the grant itself to the nature of the relationship between the sponsor's program manager and the non-profit applicant. Keeping abreast of funding trends within the philanthropic community and the government as well as participation in professional organizations facilitate this process. However, one of the best ways to write grants well, is to write grants often, learning from successes and failures. This sort of experience paves the way for successful grant writing.
Grant Administration
Grant Administration refers collectively to full administrative activities from proposal inception to grant project completion.
BVG does it all and can administer your grant program. All funders require a follow-up process. Reporting on results can turn into a complicated reporting procedure for a busy organization and frequently the grant writing consultant is the
best person to provide this service.
