Our approach
Strategic analysis
Assess organizational readiness and realistic funding prospects through a grant feasibility analysis and nonprofit wellness audit. Identify gaps that should be addressed before applying.
Strategic choice
Research funding opportunities that fit your programs. Develop a master grant application and budget to create a stronger foundation for future proposals.
Strategy implementation
Prepare identified grant applications, coordinate submissions, explore additional opportunities, and support communication with funding sources.
A partnership built for the long term
What you bring
A designated point of contact, organizational documents, program information, a budget, and timely feedback on drafts. Clear communication helps keep submissions on schedule.
What you build
A clearer program narrative, reusable proposal materials, and a more organized approach to funding. These resources can continue supporting your nonprofit beyond one application.
Questions before you get started
Can funding be guaranteed?
No. Funding decisions belong to the funder and depend on priorities, available resources, eligibility, and competition. Spirit Excel focuses on readiness, fit, and quality applications.
Can you help if our nonprofit is not grant-ready?
Yes. A grant readiness audit can identify gaps and recommend practical next steps. Organizational development support can help strengthen the foundation before you pursue funding.
How are scope and fees determined?
Discuss your organization, the type of grant, deadlines, and the support required. Cheri will outline the appropriate engagement and current pricing for your project.
