Grant Writing
Copy Editing
Applications for large grants can be cumbersome and complex, requiring a high degree of organization, research, and revision. Speedwell Consulting can manage your grant application process, from project conception through submission.
We can support every phase of a grant cycle, including convening stakeholders, conducting background research, developing and maintaining project trackers, and writing and submitting your application. The degree of our involvement depends on your organization’s needs.
The details can make or break an organization. Basic grammar and formatting, cohesive narratives, and a clear alignment with organizational priorities are all crucial. However, when you’ve been looking at the same paragraphs for weeks or months on end, it can be hard to see the forest for the trees.
Speedwell offers short and long form editing services to help you guarantee the best possible content is being presented to your stakeholders. Whether you need a quick proofread of a blog or website content or a thorough review review of a multi-component grant proposal, we can help.
Post-Award Planning & Compliance
Applying for and being awarded grant funds is just the first step. Most funders require ongoing compliance monitoring and reporting to ensure funds are being spent as stated. Additionally, large grants often require a sizable degree of planning and management to implement successfully.
Speedwell Consulting offers post-award support in the form of planning and compliance monitoring. We can help your team create a plan for your grant project, support compliance reporting, and more.
