Because Grants Should Support Your Strategy — Not Be Your Entire Strategy

At Queer For Hire, we don’t just write grants. We help you build a funding ecosystem where grants are one powerful stream — alongside individual donors, monthly giving, events, peer-to-peer campaigns, and major gifts.

Grants are important. But grants alone are fragile.

“Grants AND…” is our scalable grants writing and management service designed to strengthen your grant revenue while protecting you from overreliance.

What We Do

Our grants support can include:

  • Prospecting & Fundability Strategy
    Identify aligned foundations and private funders, clarify fit, and prioritize the right opportunities (no more chasing every open RFP).

  • Grant Writing & Application Development
    Narrative writing, budgets, attachments, logic models, outcomes language, and all the details that make applications complete and competitive.

  • Grants Calendar & Pipeline Management
    A clear grant schedule with deadlines, owners, next steps, and a realistic workload so you’re not always in last-minute mode.

  • Relationship Building & Cultivation Support
    Outreach templates, intro strategy, briefing prep, and follow-up systems to move from cold applications to warm relationships.

  • Award Management & Reporting
    Grant tracking, compliance support, reporting deadlines, impact data collection, and funder updates that strengthen renewal potential.

What “Grants AND…” Means

It means:

  • Grants AND diversified funding streams

  • Grants AND relationship-building

  • Grants AND donor development

  • Grants AND sustainability

  • Grants AND strategy

We don’t treat grants like isolated transactions. We treat them as one piece of a larger, resilient fundraising system.
