There's grant funding we need, but I just don't have the time to write or manage

Are you a stressed out, overworked School District Superintendent, able to meet the daily needs of your district, but not much more?

Have you recently seen grant funding available your district or schools qualify for and desperately need to meet your goals and objectives? This can include after school grants, safety and security funding, STEM/STEAM funding, and CTE monies.


But, you already are responsible for schools, students, staff, a multi-million budget, and to the community. It is a stressful, time-consuming career that can take over your life, limiting your moments with family and friends. And, you realize you don't have time to write that grant, let alone manage it and file reports.


Instead of passing up the grant, a grant consultant can help you obtain funding for an individual grant and allow you to still have your weekends and summer time. Here are 6 reasons why you, as a superintendent, should consider contracting with Quality Assured Grant Consulting:


  1. Access to Expertise: We specialize in crafting competitive grant proposals. We have extensive knowledge of the grant application process, including identifying funding opportunities, understanding grant guidelines, and writing compelling narratives. By engaging a grant writing consultant like Quality Assured Grant Consulting, a superintendent can leverage their expertise to increase the likelihood of securing grant funding for the district.
  2. Time and Resource Constraints: Writing a successful grant proposal requires significant time and effort. School district superintendents have multiple responsibilities and may not have the capacity or resources to dedicate sufficient time to the grant writing process. Quality Assured Grant Consulting can take on this task, allowing the superintendent to focus on other administrative duties while ensuring that the grant proposal receives the attention it deserves.
  3. Maximizing Funding Opportunities: We are experienced in identifying relevant funding opportunities and matching them with the specific needs and goals of your school district. We have a robust research plan that updates us on various grants and funding sources, including government grants, private foundation grants, and corporate grants. By working with us, you, as the superintendent can access a broader range of funding options and increase the chances of securing financial support for the district's programs and initiatives.
  4. Enhancing Proposal Quality: We possess the skills to develop well-structured and persuasive grant proposals. We understand how to align the district's objectives with the grant's requirements, present a compelling case for funding, and highlight the potential impact of the proposed project. A consultant like us can provide valuable insights, review and edit the proposal, and ensure that it effectively communicates the district's vision and needs to grant-making organizations.
  5. Grant Management and Reporting: We can also assist with post-award activities, including grant management and reporting. We help you and district staff navigate the requirements and obligations associated with grant funding, ensuring compliance with reporting deadlines, budget management, and performance evaluation.
  6. Increase Funding Success Rate: We have experience and knowledge of what grantors are looking for in proposals. Quality Assured Grant Consulting understands the evaluation criteria, priorities, and trends in grant funding. By leveraging their expertise, a superintendent can improve the quality of grant applications, increasing the likelihood of success and securing additional funding for the school district.


In summary, contracting with a grant writing consultant like Quality Assured Grant Consulting allows you, as the school district superintendent to tap into specialized expertise, save time and resources, access a wider range of funding opportunities, enhance proposal quality, and increase the success rate of securing grant funding for your district's programs and initiatives.
