Prospect Research

Schoolhouse Partners identifies grantmakers who most likely to fund your project. We avoid the shotgun approach to identifying funding sources. As we are fond of quoting, Hope is not a strategy. We focus on specific grantmakers who have particular interest in funding the types of projects you envision.

Streamline Your Grantseeking Process

For a flat fee our grant research team will create a comprehensive report of upcoming grant competitions (with abstracts, deadlines, and development costs per grant) for which your organization is eligible to apply and most likely to be awarded. Depending on the type of funding your organization needs, this report will typically include anywhere from 20 funding competitions to 50 plus. We only put the most appropriate funding opportunities in the report which will reduce time and future research efforts as you prepare your grant development schedule with our staff.

Funding Strategy Report

A funding Strategy Report provides your organization with a list of potential funding sources; a summary on the feasibility of your proposed project; a list of steps to be taken to achieve your goals; suggestions and tips to use when contacting grantmakers; a funding calendar; and detailed information on each funding source.

If you already have development staff available to search for funds, and your need for grants is ongoing in a variety of areas, consider purchasing an annual subscription to our database, GrantSelect™

After discussing your needs with one of our consultants, an affordable price will be quoted to you so that you can discuss this investment with your board and staff. Please contact our offices at 812-988-6400 to make arrangements for these services.
