Powerful Language. Positive Impact.

Yes! Ventures Grants has provided client-centered grant writing and fund development services since 1999. We have worked with more than fifty nonprofits and raised more than $85 million in foundation, corporation and government grants.

While we are proudly generalists, our work lands broadly in the health and human services space, including education, healthcare, youth development and social services.

Doing What We Love

Our sweet spot is working with small to mid-size nonprofits who are grant-ready (don’t worry, we’ll help you assess that) but who can’t justify the expense of a full-time grant writer. We also partner with the development teams of larger nonprofits as adjunct grant writers to their on-site staff.
