Grant Writing

Comprehensive Grant Writing & Application Services

At Grants Mentor, we provide a full suite of grant writing and application services designed to give your project the best possible chance of success. Whether you need end-to-end grant application management or support with specific components, we tailor our services to meet your unique needs.

You can choose to have us manage the entire process from start to finish or select individual services such as:

• Project Plan Development

  We can create a project plan from the ground up or refine your existing plan to ensure clear alignment with grant objectives.

• Budgeting

  From building a complete budget to reviewing and refining an existing one, we ensure compliance with funding requirements and grant objectives. We consider eligible and ineligible expenses, in-kind contributions, and partner or external funding.

• Scenario Analysis

  We conduct detailed scenario testing to strengthen your budget and application, ensuring every aspect is well thought through.

• Risk Management

  We develop a robust, grant-specific risk management plan, identifying potential risks and outlining strategies to mitigate them.

• Historical & Statistical Research

  We gather and present relevant data and statistics to substantiate your application and enhance its credibility.

• Impact Analysis

  We deliver a compelling impact analysis that highlights the benefits and outcomes of your project, reinforcing the case for funding.

Whether you need strategic advice, complete application writing, or specialist components like budgeting, scenario and impact analysis, we provide flexible, expert solutions to help secure the funding you need.

Grant Strategy

Strategies to maximize your chances of funding success

At Grants Mentor, our goal is simple: to set you up for success. With extensive experience across the grants landscape, we know what works—and we bring that expertise directly to our clients.

We partner with you to develop a tailored Grants Strategy that aligns with your organisation’s goals and maximises your funding opportunities. Our strategic services include:

• Grant Research

  We draw on an extensive database of grant providers and, as a value-added service, notify you as soon as suitable opportunities become available.

• Advice on Whether to Apply

  Applying for grants can be resource-intensive. We provide clear, tailored advice and analysis to help you decide whether a particular grant is the right fit for your organisation, taking into account key factors unique to you.

• Grant Readiness

  Application windows are often short. We work with you to refine your story, project, and budget so you’re fully prepared when opportunities open.

• Networking with Funders

  We facilitate introductions and support you in building relationships with potential funders, as strong connections can significantly increase your chances of success.

• Grant Reporting

  Once grants are awarded, we help set up streamlined reporting processes and procedures to ensure compliance without creating unnecessary burden for your team.

  With a strong Grants Strategy in place, your organisation will be better positioned not just to apply—but to win.
  

Grant Coaching

Empowering you with Grant application skills

At Grants Mentor, we believe in empowering our clients with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to write their own successful applications.

Unlike many providers that offer broad, one-size-fits-all training, we deliver bespoke, one-on-one coaching tailored to both your organisation and the specific grant you’re applying for. Each coaching session is designed to equip you with the practical tools and strategies you need to craft compelling responses.

Our coaching services include:

• Application Guidance

  We work through the questions you find most challenging, step-by-step and, if required, can review the entire application form with you to ensure every response is strong and well-structured.

• Application Review and Feedback

  Once you’ve drafted your application, we provide detailed feedback and practical suggestions to refine and strengthen your submission.

This service is a budget-friendly option, ideal for:

• Smaller grant applications (typically under $20,000), and

• Organisations or individuals who are new to grant writing and want to build lasting capability.

  Our goal is not just to help you with one application, but to leave you with the confidence and skills to succeed in future funding opportunities.
