Nonprofit leadership team developing a professional grant and funding strategy

Grant Research + Grant Writing

LET'S GO GET
THE MONEY.

Your nonprofit has a mission. Let's find the funding to help move it forward.

Grant opportunities exist every day. The challenge is identifying the right opportunities, knowing which ones are worth pursuing, developing the strategy and submitting a strong application. That is where Sharifah Hardie comes in.

Built for established 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations ready to pursue grants professionally and consistently.

Meet Your Funding Strategist

SHARIFAH HARDIE

You are not hiring someone to type answers into a grant application.

You are hiring nearly 30 years of business experience, professional judgment and hands on support to help determine where the money may be, which opportunities deserve your time, how your organization should be positioned and what story needs to be told.

Grant writing is part of the work. The larger value is building a professional process for identifying and pursuing funding opportunities that make sense for your organization.

What I Do For You

You run the organization. I'll help pursue the funding.

01

I Research

I identify grant opportunities that align with your organization, programs and goals.

02

I Evaluate

I determine which opportunities appear worth pursuing and identify eligibility issues before unnecessary time is spent.

03

I Strategize

I help determine how your organization and proposed project should be positioned.

04

I Write

I prepare grant narratives and application materials based on your organization's actual information.

05

I Keep Looking

This is ongoing support. We continue looking for appropriate opportunities instead of researching one grant and disappearing.

The Work Still Has To Get Done

How much funding are you not pursuing because nobody has time to pursue it?

Executive directors are running organizations. Program teams are delivering services. Boards are governing. Staff are managing operations.

Grant research and strong applications take time. When nobody owns the funding process, opportunities get missed.

That is the problem this service solves.

Create a Professional Funding Process

THE MONEY WILL NOT APPLY FOR ITSELF.

Your organization can continue hoping the right opportunity appears at the right time, or it can consistently identify, evaluate and pursue appropriate funding with professional support.

Ongoing Professional Support

What $1,500 per month actually buys.

This is not a software subscription. Your organization receives ongoing professional support for grant opportunity research, opportunity evaluation, funding strategy, proposal preparation, application support and the continued pursuit of appropriate opportunities.

  • Grant opportunity research
  • Eligibility and opportunity evaluation
  • Funding strategy and positioning
  • Proposal and narrative preparation
  • Application support
  • Ongoing pursuit of appropriate opportunities
