Lauren started on the program side of nonprofits, and gained a deep understanding of working directly with clients before transitioning to grant development and foundation relations.

At Ink & Impact Grant Consulting, your mission is our mission

At Ink & Impact, we believe funding is about more than numbers; it’s about people. We’re not just driven by helping nonprofits win more grants; we’re fueled by the lasting impact you make in the communities you serve.

We know what it’s like to feel stretched thin: limited budgets, growing needs, and the weight of wanting to do more with less. We’ve felt the pressure to diversify funding without knowing where to start.

We’ve been there. And that’s why we’re here. Ink & Impact Grant Consulting partners with mission-driven organizations to build sustainable funding strategies so you can strengthen your programs, expand your reach, and serve your clients with the excellence they deserve.
