Karen Dove Consulting
Based on my experiences with Karen's job performance, I find that she is extremely knowledgeable in the area as a grant writer.  She readily takes on any task that is assigned to her with minimal supervision....she not only completes the assigned task, but takes initiative to seek additional grants that may further help the agency.  I have found her work product to be complete and professionally done.  I believe she would be an asset to any organization.

Grant Writing Excellence

Karen has written millions of dollars in local, state and federal grants.  She has constructed budgets and developed many programs with staff input.  She is well versed in logic models and developing measurable outcomes.  When it comes to grant writing, from A to Z, Karen has done it all. 

Finding grants can be hard to do.  Research is more than half the job!  Where do I find grants?  Is there anything in the local community for our organization?  Karen Dove is well versed in finding a fit for any organization's needs. 

Local foundation funding is available, even in a down economy, and as the economy recovers it will be even more available.  In the past several months,  Karen's clients have received funding for  2 Willaim G. and Marie Selby Foundation grants, 2 Florida Winefest & Auction grants, a Lakewood Ranch Rotary Winefest grant and several others.  Since August of 2009 Karen's clients have received over $300,000 from foundation and governmental grants with over $700,000 currently pending.

Karen keeps her skills current and continuously upgrades her knowledge of fund development as an active member of the Association of Fund Raising Professionals.  She also occassionally offers training for organizations in grant writing.  

 Karen is tremendously effective in composing an application to grow or sustain your organization, or to develop effective new programs and projects to reach your clients.   She has written over $8 million in funded grants during her career.  Her largest grant ($1 milliion which became $2 million over the course of the project)  funded a program which she conceived and developed.  This program won a National Merit Award from Boys & Girls Clubs of America,   Request a copy of her Scope of Experience to see the grants she has acquired througout the years for a variety of clients.
