Is it really free?
Yes. Grant Central operates entirely through volunteers and will never charge clients for our services. We simply request that clients follow a few guidelines to ensure their project team can deliver the highest quality results.
Grant Readiness
Grants require substantial record-keeping and adherence to guidelines. Grant Central is not a good fit for brand-new organizations. Explore grant readiness here.
Communication
We strive to minimize client disruptions beyond the Kickoff Meeting. However, grant proposals frequently need input from internal staff, such as budget details, support letters, and staff resumes. Clients should be ready to gather essential information for their project team to draft proposals effectively. Our team will ask for a designated Point-of-Contact to serve as the project team’s internal contact.
Budget
Grant Central will review budgets, offer advice, and ensure that the budget aligns with the rest of the proposal. However, our project teams ask that clients draft the budgets.
Patience
While our project teams are composed of selected volunteers with training in grant proposal fundamentals, grant seeking remains a competitive process. Grant Central can guarantee a high-quality and thoroughly reviewed proposal, but cannot guarantee an outcome.
