Think and Ink Grant Consulting is a full-service grant consulting firm founded in 2016 and based in Atlanta, Georgia, serving clients nationwide. We help colleges and universities, local government, and large nonprofits find, win, and manage grants, and we have helped clients leverage over $625 million in funding with a 78% success rate.

The Think.Ink.FUND.™ Framework is our proprietary grant consulting methodology. We help organizations think strategically about which grants to pursue before we ink winning proposals, so strategy drives the writing rather than the other way around.

Every grant proposal we write is researched, written, and reviewed by our human team of grant professionals, including former funders and federal grant reviewers. We use AI only in limited, supportive ways, such as quality assurance checks and designing work from human-sourced data. Your proposal’s strategy, narrative, and voice always come from people who understand your work and your funders.
