FACT: Only 34% of nonprofits win grant funding in any given grant cycle. That means most grant-seeking organizations face internal gaps in strategy, alignment, or readiness.

It’s not your mission—it’s your infrastructure, your messaging, or your strategy.
You’re doing the work. Your impact is real. But when it comes to funding, something isn’t clicking. Here’s why:
You don’t know which funders align with your mission—or how to approach them
Your documents, budgets, or policies are incomplete or outdated
You’ve submitted grants before, but without a clear or consistent strategy
Your proposal doesn’t fully reflect your voice, value, or vision
You’re asking yourself, “Why aren’t we getting funded?”
At Granted Success Inc., we diagnose the root of your funding challenges and help you build what’s missing—so you stop spinning your wheels and start gaining traction.
We do not just write proposals. We help you build the roadmap that gets your organization funded. Through in-depth analysis, funder alignment, and message refinement, we work with you to identify the right opportunities, position your programs effectively, and craft compelling proposals based on a focused strategy that gets results.
We help you design or redesign initiatives that are aligned with funder expectations, grounded in data, and tailored to your community’s needs. Whether you’re launching something new or strengthening what already exists, we co-create program models that are both visionary and practical, allowing you to apply with confidence.
Funders invest in infrastructure—not just ideas. We assess and strengthen the systems behind your mission, including governance, policies, staffing, and workflows. Whether you're preparing for your first major grant or recovering from a funding setback, we help you build the internal capacity to manage, sustain, and grow what you’ve built.
