Featured Grant Writers

Services:  Full-service grant writing

Nonprofits have big dreams. But big dreams need funding. That’s where I come in.

I’ve worked with nonprofits at different stages—some just starting to figure out their funding strategies, others looking to scale. From securing small grants to navigating pitch competitions for my own nonprofit startup, I’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and how to approach funding in a way that’s both strategic and realistic.

My background? Grant writing, donor relations, and nonprofit strategy. But grant writing isn’t just about filling out applications—it’s about understanding the full scope of an organization’s work and positioning it in a way that resonates with funders. That’s where I thrive. Right now, I’m working as a project manager and grant writer, helping a nonprofit refine its funding strategies, secure grants, and build long-term sustainability. Beyond just writing proposals, I focus on aligning funding opportunities with the organization’s goals, crafting compelling narratives, and ensuring funders see the full impact of the work being done. Now, we’re securing funding, strengthening partnerships, and setting the stage for bigger impact.

Finally, I love startups, scrappy innovation, and purpose-driven work. Nothing beats the feeling of seeing a great idea get the funding it deserves—and when that happens, it’s not just about securing a grant. It’s about giving organizations the resources to create lasting change.

Cydney is a physician specializing in Internal Medicine.  She is very busy but can write quotes that can be used to convey information best stated by a doctor.  E.g.

'Prolonged exposure to cold temperatures can lead to hypothermia, a condition characterized by a core body temperature drop below 95 degrees Fahrenheit.  Hypothermia impairs thermoregulation, enzymatic function, cardiac and neurological activity.  Which if left untreated can result in heart arrythmia, metabolic acidosis, organ failure, and death.'

Is medical jargon for 'Cold leads to hypothermia, hypothermia is bad and can be deadly.'
