Collaboration is Key

We are pleased to announce Burke Hammons Consulting’s Consultant Directory, which features the names of individuals and organizations doing remarkable work to support their communities in various ways.

It takes a village to operate a successful community organization. We publish this list as a public resource for those seeking assistance with grant writing, strategy, and related areas. These are the partners that we call with quick questions when we need advice as we work with you, and whom we would refer you to if you are looking for more in-depth assistance in their respective areas of expertise.

We developed this list because we believe it’s valuable to break down the silos between nonprofit consultants. We learn a lot from other grant professionals and benefit from professional networking with organizations like the Grant Professionals Association. We are also committed to ensuring that organizations work with grant professionals who are the best fit. Depending on the age and size of the organization or its area of focus, we may not be the best positioned to serve them. Our connections with other grant professionals enable us to make informed referrals, ensuring that organizations in need of grant services receive the right consultant for their specific needs.

As crucial as these connections with other grant professionals are, it can be just as vital to form connections with consultants working in different fields that support nonprofits.

Grants often impact every facet of an organization. An effective grant-seeking program requires a strategic plan, a position alongside other revenue sources, robust evaluation that includes data collection and storage, solid financials, consistent messaging, and qualified staff. Once a grant is awarded, effective grant management is crucial to maintain relationships with funders. Relationships with consultants in these areas help us serve our clients more effectively.

In the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing some stories of how Burke Hammons Consulting has helped our clients by connecting with organizations in our directory.
