Grants

Want to make sure your organization has the best possible chance to get the funding you need?  Are you intimidated by the idea of applying for a grant?  Think your organization is too small? Too new?

Grant writing is a unique combination of research writing and story telling that requires extensive research, due diligence, an understanding of funders and their goals, and above all, the ability to paint a picture with words and data.

Rebecca has successfully written grants for: Community Outreach, Conference Costs, Educational Events, Emergency Funding, Equipment, Event Sponsorships, Project Management, Spay/Neuter, Transfer Stipends, Volunteer Programs, and Special Projects.

Events

Whether the goal of your event is to raise money, increase awareness of your business or non-profit,  host a networking event or throw a party to show your clients how much you appreciate them, we can help tailor your event to meet your goals and amplify your mission, while creating an occasion everyone will remember.   We can get your event organized, draft a budget, create a timeline, coordinate with vendors, secure advertising spots and assist with marketing, draft sponsor and donor appeals, and handle all event logistics, or simply serve as a guide for your staff or volunteers.

If you are considering an intimate dinner party, an extravagant gala, multi-day conference, casual open house or a community event, we can help. 

Some of our recent events include:

  • Humane Society of Sedona 2017 Pet Lovers Gala
  • Hummingbird Society Festival 2019
  • Verde Valley Humane Society’s Holiday Bazaar
  • Metroplex Animal Coalition’s Real Men Care Silent Auction & Awards Dinner
  • Dallas Companion Animal Project’ Shoot For The Moon Auction
  • Texas Unites Annual 3-Day Conference & Networking Event
  • Variety of private educational and awareness events, festivals, fairs, and open houses

Whether you want to start an annual event, plan a one-time party, or tweak an existing event, we can help.

Social Media

Whatever your goals are for social media, we can help you create a balanced program to reach those goals and objectives. We can help get you started, choose your channels, establish safeguards, develop reporting tools, ensure compliance, and increase return on your investment.

Social media can do so much for so little:

  • Push traffic to your website
  • Reach new markets and increase foot traffic
  • Educate customers and mobilize your community
  • Highlight your expertise and professionalism
  • Keep clients and supporters up to date
  • Deliver enhanced customer service
  • Recruit qualified employees and volunteers
  • Promote upcoming events and appearances

Small business owners, artists and non-profit leaders need social media, but don’t have time to learn everything they need to know.

Let’s create your plan together.  Call today.
