Starting point
A 4-person team running tenant-stability programs in Portland with no dedicated grant writer. Two months of runway. Searching grant databases by hand on Friday afternoons.
What the system did
Matched 38 federal, state, and foundation calls to their service area. Drafted three proposals end-to-end. Tracked deadlines and assembled supporting documents.
Result
Two awards landed within the first 90 days - a $75K HUD CDBG renewal and a $75K state housing-stability grant. A third foundation proposal is in final review.
