Impact Consulting/Grant Development

Grant Development

Compelling, compliant proposals that win — and that you can deliver.

From research to submission, our grant team drafts proposals that are strategically aligned, technically rigorous, and financially sound. We write to win, and we write what you can actually implement.

Who this is for

Built for the organizations we know.

  • Schools and universities
  • NGOs and INGOs
  • Faith-based organizations
  • Foundations and social enterprises

Engage the whole practice, or select the sub-services that fit your moment.

Grant Research

Targeted searches across foundations, government, and international donors matched to your programs and geography.

Proposal Writing

Full technical proposals — from problem statement to methodology, workplan, and organizational capacity.

Concept Notes

Two- to five-page concept notes that open doors with new donors.

Letters of Inquiry

Well-crafted LOIs that turn cold introductions into invited applications.

Budgets, budget narratives, and cost-share plans that reviewers trust.

Narrative Writing

Program narratives, case statements, and impact stories that read as beautifully as they read technically.

Foundation Applications

Applications to family, community, and private foundations.

Government Grants

USAID, EU, GPE, FCDO, national government grants and cooperative agreements.

International Donor Grants

UN agencies, multilateral funds, and philanthropic collaboratives.

Success Metrics

Indicators, targets, and MEL plans embedded in the proposal from day one.

Proposal Review

Independent expert review of proposals drafted in-house — line-edit, technical review, or compliance check.

Compliance Check

Regulatory, procurement, and cost-principle compliance across major donor rules.

Reverse-engineered proposal timelines that keep teams and reviewers on schedule.
