What You Get
12 months with Growcer's funding mobilization team.
A dedicated funding strategist who learns your community, your goals, and your constraints, then builds a strategy that combines government grants, private foundations, regional sponsors, and philanthropic funders into a plan that works for your project.
We commit to pursuing 3x your project's total value in funding opportunities. For a typical $300K project, that means developing over $900K in grant applications, foundation pitches, and donor outreach.
Your project champion works alongside our team, bringing the community knowledge that makes every application stand out.
"The High Prairie School Division's experience with the team at Growcer was incredible. The hands-on service of the sales team guiding us through the entire process was seamless and well prepared. Nick was there to provide guidance and support at every turn. Other members of the team helped us raise money for the project through their Grant Writer Holly and the maintenance team supported the delivery and instalment flawlessly. Working with this team has been a great pleasure."
- Brennan McDonald, Coordinator of Special Projects and Programming, High Prairie School Division
