Example of Savings


Grant consultants may charge between $40 and $125 per hour. If your organization will be writing multiple grant proposals each year, it will be more economical to educate staff members in proposal writing and to form a grant writing team. The cost of writing a grant internally is approximately 50% the cost of hiring a grant consultant.

SBBA members can receive up to a 50% discount on professional grant writing services.
$40 per hour x 20 hours per grant x 4 grants per year = $3,200
50% discount = $1,600.



Details


Many organizations face challenges when it comes to funding important programs. The needs and demands continue to grow while funding grows scarce or nonexistent. In business, “It takes money to make money”. No one is going to hand you $50,000 because they like your smile or you have a sincere heart. Today, everyone is starting their own non-profit. In turn, this increases the request for funding. At the same time available grant awards are decreasing. Some people are taking matters into their own hands, going on line to research for available grant funds, just like many other thousands around the country. These grant opportunities are highly competitive, because so many people are doing the same thing you are. Organizations successful in receiving grant awards have found some not as competitive grant sources and have a professional writer assisting with the development and editing of their proposal.
