Green Source Consulting offers the following fundraising and program planning services designed to meet the needs of small to large nonprofit organizations, public agencies, and local municipalities.

Prospect Research & Fundraising Plan Development: Green Source Consulting has extensive experience developing fundraising plans for small to multimillion dollar organizations and projects. We are skilled in foundation prospect research, as well as knowledgeable in federal and state government funding opportunities for the environment, sustainable communities, and youth.

Grant Proposal & Report Writing: We specialize in developing highly competitive foundation, corporate, and government grant proposals, letters of inquiry, and grant reports. Depending on the client’s needs, proposal and grant report writing is available on an ongoing or project-by-project basis.

Government Grant Application Development & Management: Large government grant applications can often be daunting, even for the savviest of organizations. With an increase in government funding opportunities designed to fuel the new green economy, Green Source Consulting provides nonprofit organizations, public agencies, and local municipalities with the guidance, project management, and proposal writing, editing, and budgeting services needed to complete federal and state government grant applications successfully.

Full-Service Foundation Fundraising Management: Ideal for small organizations or organizations undergoing staff transitions, Green Source Consulting’s foundation fundraising management services include, but are not limited to, managing proposal deadlines, grant request submissions, communication and stewardship moves for funders/prospects, as well as full-service grant proposal and grant report writing.

Program Design & Planning: A well planned, mission-driven program or project that occupies a unique niche and has a demonstrated need, proven methods, solid objectives, strategic partnerships, and evaluation techniques is the foundation of any successful fundraising effort (and program). Green Source Consulting specializes in helping its clients hone and develop their programs and projects to attract the funding needed for long-term success.

Internal Systems for Fundraising Success: We also work with our clients to create user-friendly systems for managing their institutional giving programs, for collecting the information and data needed for grant reporting, and for completing the annual program planning needed for budgeting and fundraising purposes.

Development Audits: Designed to help organizations strengthen all aspects of their fundraising systems, Green Source Consulting’s development audits include a thorough review and assessment of organizations’ fundraising materials, including but not limited to proposals, grant reports, organizational and project budgets, financial statements, institutional giving plan, and grant tracking system. At the end of the audit, we provide clients with an audit overview document summarizing the audit findings and making preliminary suggestions for addressing areas for improvement.

Fundraising Coaching & Training: Green Source Consulting also offers coaching and training sessions for staff and volunteers who could use extra support and guidance in the areas of fundraising or program management. Coaching and training topics include proposal writing, prospect research, building/strengthening relationships with foundation funders and prospects, program planning, and fundamentals of completing and managing large-scale government grant applications.
