Grant Readiness Services for Nonprofits

Is your nonprofit truly ready to win grant funding?

​

At Pacific Willow Consulting, we believe that grant success starts long before you hit “submit.” Being grant ready means your organization has the structure, documentation, and clear, compelling story that funders expect — and we’re here to help you get there.

​

What Is Grant Readiness — and Why It Matters

A powerful mission alone isn’t enough to secure funding. Funders look for confident, well-prepared organizations with a strong foundation and a clear plan for impact.

​

When you’re grant ready, you can:

• Increase your chances of winning competitive funding

• Save time by focusing only on the right opportunities

• Present your organization with clarity and professionalism

• Build long-term trust and sustainability with funders

​

What We’ll Review and Strengthen Together

Our Grant Readiness Assessment meets you where you are — whether your nonprofit is brand new, growing, or ready to scale.

 

We’ll help you identify strengths, address gaps, and prepare for grant success by reviewing:

• Organizational documents & financials – ensuring compliance and funder expectations are met

• Program clarity – aligning your programs with funder priorities

• Impact measurement tools – making sure your evaluation systems showcase results

• Team capacity – assessing staff or volunteer readiness to manage grants

• Strategic storytelling – crafting a strong case for support that inspires funders

​
