Expand SSV Development Program

Outcome

Grant funding has increased by more than 300 percent, a planned giving program has been established, and SSV's visibility has been expanded among key funder groups.

Testimonial

We are pleased to have partnered with FDA for nearly eight years. Their expertise in grant writing and knowledge of the philanthropic world has expanded our funder base substantially, and enabled us to both grow existing programs and explore new initiatives. Thanks in great part to their efforts, we are able to better serve hundreds of children each year.
