“I am so extremely grateful to have found GrantWorks. I feel their work has the potential to bring our organization to the level of ‘world class,’ as we intend to be. Their work is impeccable, creative, detailed, visionary, and they are fun and easy to work with. Truly, this is already a major gift to Acupuncturists Without Borders. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough to other nonprofit organizations.”
~ Diana Fried, Founder and Executive Director, Acupuncturists Without Borders
“I was impressed with Maggie’s excellent writing skills, her careful research into the requirements of the Dollar General Back-to-School Grant Program, and her dedication and professionalism. In the end, it was Maggie’s excellent writing skills that helped us win the full amount we requested ($4,000) to almost double the number of students tutored (including kindergarten students and third graders), to purchase new equipment and books, and to better meet the needs of our volunteer tutors.”
~ Doris Hartenberger, Director, Aim Higher Tutoring
“Maggie Parks [GrantWorks] wrote a start-up grant proposal for the Court-Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) program in Monterey County, securing almost $90,000 (the total amount requested) that enabled the program to form and begin to serve abused and neglected children in our area. The following year, she wrote successful maintenance and expansion grants that garnered the additional funds needed to grow the program and have a major impact on the children in our county. Maggie’s passion to make a difference and her unique ability to listen and ask questions ensured that the proposals she wrote conveyed the urgency and mission of the organization.”
~ Rosalie Ferrante, Former Executive Director, Monterey County CASA
“I believe like many non-profit organizations, TEENS, Inc. contemplated the necessity of hiring a grant writing group for many years. Even after deciding to make the jump I was still skeptical. Now, after working with GrantWorks for 10 months, I cannot imagine not having them part of our team. The team of Maggie, Carol and Sue offer an incredible array and breadth of knowledge. They are professional, committed, and talented, resulting in compelling, detail-oriented and amazing proposals. GrantWorks leadership and skill has made it possible for TEENS, Inc. to not only sustain itself during these tough economic times, but actually expand our programs by nearly 25%! Just two months ago we received our largest operating grant ever that will expand our programs substantially allowing us to reach more youth and families with a higher quality of service.”
