Though indispensable, grant writing should be seen as one element in a comprehensive fundraising plan that includes income from diverse non-grant sources such as individuals and special events. At Bradley Associates, our approach is to integrate grant income into your overall development plan. As in all areas of fund development, relationship cultivation between the organization and the funder is key.

With decades of experience, Bradley Associates team members are uniquely trained to find and research your most likely grant prospects, concentrating our efforts where you are most likely to realize results. We believe that relationships with funders, not grant copy, are what will serve your organization over the long haul. Our pre-proposal preparation and professional-caliber proposals, individually tailored to address the concerns of each grant maker, help you put your best face forward. Throughout the grant writing process we work diligently to create opportunities for organizations and funders to form relationships that will grow well past the initial funding stage.

We charge a fee for our services - not an hourly rate. Each of our contracts includes researching, writing letters of intent, as well as the actual grant proposals for a given project. We will also for six-months follow-up with you on the results and the letters of intent to assure that we meet all deadlines.
