Public Charity and Small Business Consulting

At The Grant Ninja Inc., we believe that world-changing missions deserve world-class funding. Led by a specialist trained by industry leader Professor Beverly Browning and a current Communications scholar at Ensign College, our firm bridges the gap between grassroots passion and professional fundraising infrastructure.

We don’t just write; we strategize. Our approach ensures your organization is "grant-ready" before the first application is submitted.

• Grant Readiness Analysis: A deep dive into your organization's programs and reporting, to ensure that you are ready for the next step in the grant journey. 
• Potential Funding Opportunities Search: A study of your organization's local market to identify potential untapped funding resources. 
• Grant Prospect Research: Identifying and vetting funders whose missions align specifically with your organization’s goals to ensure high success rates.
• Case for Support Creation: Developing a master "living document" that serves as the foundation for all your fundraising and storytelling efforts.
• Advanced Grant Proposal Development: Full-cycle development of highly technical proposals, tailored to private foundations, corporate giving, and government agencies.
• Candid GuideStar Ready Architecture: Creation of public reporting infrastructure necessary to obtain Platinum Status

In the modern philanthropic landscape, your digital presence is your first impression. We optimize your brand to build trust with donors.

• SEO Audit & Optimization: Analyzing your website for technical conflicts that hinder visibility and implementing changes to increase organic traffic and donor conversion.
• Brand Recognition Campaigns: Crafting communication strategies to elevate your organization’s profile within your local community and industry.
• Media Relations: Leveraging experience with broadcasters to negotiate advertising rates and secure media placements for special events or capital campaigns.
• AI Training: Utilizing proprietary AI training methods to ensure your organization is relevant to top AI software, and maximize customer reach.

Drawing on a background in construction planning and board leadership, we offer unique "hands-on" consulting for complex initiatives.

• Concept Design: Expert consultation on project designs that incorporate accessibility, similar to the ADA-compliant tiny home initiatives developed for the "Fort Hope" project.
• Program Design: Helping nonprofits structure their services (such as youth clinics or veteran housing) to be more attractive to major donors and grant-makers.
• Program Reporting Structure: Designing custom reporting tools, to ensure all grant reporting requirements can be easily met.
• Fundraising Event Strategy: Designing high-impact donation drives and community-facing events that maximize brand exposure.

• Entrepreneurial Grit: Built on a 20-year history of business ownership and "boots-on-the-ground" experience.
• Academic Rigor: Current insights from the Communications program at Ensign College and specialized training in Grant Writing.
• Mission-Driven: A proven track record of serving on boards for youth and veteran-focused charities.
