About Me
Hi, I’m Beatriz.
For the past decade, I have delivered critical insights to decision- makers at 15 philanthropic and nonprofit organizations, enabling them to excel in their impact goals and raising over $4.15 million in the process. I’ve realized that nonprofit organizations aren’t always able to afford hiring seasoned grant consultants. I have consolidated what I’ve learned about the grantmaking and grant writing process from my time working as a funder and as a grant writer. My goal is to make sure you have everything you need to write effective grants from day 1!
Frequently Asked Questions
Multiple people in my organization need training. Do we have to pay full price for each one?
No! I am happy to offer a 35% discount to organizations that have purchased my program once. A grant operation is stronger when there is more than one person responsible for its success.
My organization doesn’t meet all of the financial requirements you outlined. Can we still take this course?
I would say you should book a consultation with me so we can discuss the specifics of your organization’s situation. My goal is to set you up for success through this course, and with most foundation’s requiring tax filings with the IRS we will need to figure out how you can convey financial credibility to foundations in their absence.
Why do you have the financial requirements that you do for this course?
Most foundations now a days strongly prefer or outright require that organizations have audited financial statements. The reason being that most foundations want proof of financial sustainability and credibility beyond whatever grant they might issue.
What is the timeline for your program once I’ve enrolled?
We’ll set the timeline together making sure that it works comfortably with your schedule and the goals of your organization. We can pace the 5 modules as you wish. The additional services and deliverables included in this package - Grant Writing Assistance, Identification of 5 foundations - will occur upon completion of the course.
Is it possible to tailor some of the content that we cover?
Yes, my course is designed to be interactive. For each module I’ll share a PowerPoint that we can walk through that includes the “lesson”. As we go through each of the key topics within the lesson we’ll discuss what the application will be for your organization.
What if I still have questions after we’ve completed the course?
My commitment to anyone who enrolls in my course is that I will submit the first grant alongside you after you complete my course. Sometimes we only become aware of our questions once we begin implementing. I designed this course to include assistance during this phase too. I got you covered!
