Grant writing for Oklahoma nonprofits and ministries.

Most small organizations doing good work in Oklahoma have no one on staff with time to chase funding. I find the foundations that fund work like yours, and I write the applications.

Funder Research Brief

$750

A written report identifying 18–20 foundations that fund work like yours, with award ranges, application deadlines, recent comparable grants they've made, and a plain explanation of why each one fits. Ranked by priority, with a recommended sequence and calendar.

Delivered in about one week. The best place to start if you've never applied before.

Proposal Writing

$700 – $1,750

A complete foundation application: statement of need built on Oklahoma data, program description, measurable outcomes, evaluation plan, organizational capacity, sustainability, and a budget with a line-by-line narrative. Attachments assembled, compliance checked against the funder's guidelines, and submitted ahead of deadline.

Typically two weeks. Letters of inquiry available separately at $400–$700.

Grant Reporting

$300 – $800

The report your funder requires after the money arrives; activities completed against what was promised, people served, outcome data, and budget actual versus projected with variances explained.

Ongoing monthly support available for organizations that want their whole grant calendar managed.

About

I'm Gabriel Nichols. I hold a Bachelor of Biblical Studies from Bear Valley Bible Institute, and my background is in ministry, preaching, teaching, and study. That work is what led me to grant writing. I'm passionate about helping others help others, and now I have the opportunity to do just that through securing funding for non-profit organizations.

I work with churches, ministries, children's homes, Christian schools, camps, and community nonprofits across Oklahoma. I understand how these organizations actually run, whether it be the volunteer labor, the thin margins, or the board that meets once a quarter. Funders are looking to support clear needs, specific plans, and results that can be measured. My job is to take what you already do well and put it in the language foundations use.

How I work

I'll tell you the truth about your odds. Industry-wide, roughly one in seven grant applications gets funded. Anyone who promises you a success isn't being straight with you.

What I can do is put you in the better tier. Small and regional foundations approve at far higher rates than national ones, and applications matched carefully to a funder's mission and geography win two to three times as often as generic ones.

I bill for the work, never a percentage of the award. Taking a cut of grant funding violates the Grant Professionals Association Code of Ethics and is disallowed by most funders. Flat fee, agreed in writing before I start, only half up front.

Tell me a little about your organization and I'll send a sample research brief so you can judge the quality before deciding anything. No obligation.
