Grant Writing and Funding Research

At Sandpiper Evaluation Associates (SEA), we provide expert grant writing and funding research services designed to help organizations secure the resources they need to thrive. Whether you’re pursuing a large-scale federal initiative, a state-funded program, or a local foundation grant, our team brings the experience and insight necessary to navigate the entire funding process from start to finish.

Our approach begins with assessing whether your organization is truly grant ready. We’ll evaluate your program structure, goals, and available data to ensure you’re in the strongest possible position to apply for funding. From there, we collaborate closely with your team to develop a compelling, well-researched proposal that aligns with the mission and priorities of your target funders.

We specialize in identifying grant opportunities that match your vision—taking the guesswork out of where to apply. Our funding research digs deep into current databases, foundation priorities, government funding streams, and philanthropic trends to ensure a strategic match. Once we’ve identified the right opportunities, we provide the writing, editing, and technical support needed to produce a high-quality submission.
