Greetings:
I have a great deal of experience in grant
writing for education, community, environmental
and health-related projects.
Competition for
grant funds is intense!
I will do my best to make sure that your
proposal is as competitive as possible.
In order to provide first rate service to my
clients, I only undertake a few projects
simultaneously. So, please contact me
early in advance of your looming project
deadline!
Despite the economic
challenges, not-for-profit organizations can
increase their budgets by increasing their grant
applications in the short term. 2012 is a
good year to work with a professional grant
writer to increase your success rate and take
advantage of capital that is still available in
the foundation and federal funding agencies.
Reasons to
contract out your grant writing:
1. In these tough
economic times for organizations and agencies,
it makes more sense now than ever cost-wise to
contract out grant work rather than to support
a full grant writing staff--due to savings in
insurance, workers comp, retirement and health
benefits, etc.
2.
There
are also savings in efficiency in that a
contractor is on-target with a fixed price and
because funding prospects are well defined in
advance.
3. There are many RFPs out in
education, energy and technology at the DE, DHS,
NEA and NSF that I can bring to the attention of
school districts, colleges and universities and
I have a great deal of experience in researching
and identifying funding sources.
4. Since I telecommute, I provide all of
the office overhead and necessary equipment and
software needed to develop and assist you in
electronically filing your query letter and
grant application. I can also
cost-effectively provide your grant tracking and
reporting requirements.
5. For large-scale projects or demanding
deadlines, I have professional associates ready
to assist your project.
6. I am also ready and willing to assist
your agency grant writer as needed.
I have many years of experience in
grant writing. Here is a brief
summary. Please contact me if you would
like a complete resume or to discuss
rates. Please note that I do not work on a
commission basis.

Government
Grant Writing Experience
Experienced at developing
and submitting electronic proposals to:
- National Science Foundation
- Department of Labor
- MARAD

My experience in
developing proposals spans several decades
beginning with my graduate studies at Scripps
Institution of Oceanography.
I have developed proposals for my own
research, the University of California, Santa
Cruz; the Development Consulting Network and
Hatchuel Tabernick and Associates.
Education Grant Writing Experience
- Nolan has had a long
involvement in efforts to educate young
people as well as adults in environmental
conservation. One
of the projects is the Task Force
Environmental Education Kit.
This combination of instructional
television series, interactive software
and web discussion forum encourages
students to understand the issues related
to declining salmon fisheries. It challenges
students to develop skills in the
resolution of environmental conflict by
studying a wide range of differing
viewpoints and then to develop their own
management plan. This
was funded in part by a grant from the
National Science Foundation in 1994.
- Developer of Salmon
Preservation: a Case Study in the
Resolution of Environmental Conflict, a
web site with a wide range of resources,
fishery data and open forum.
- Developer of Coral Kingdom,
instructional software about the biology
and ecology of coral reefs, Digital
Studios, 1993.

Information
Technology Experience.
I have a keen interest in

Cruz

conducted numerous environmental studies and
impact statements; produced a national
educational TV series on salmon populations
