Roots Partners is a grant writing consulting agency that helps organizations grow their funding through expert grant writing services so they can focus on what they do best - providing services and changing lives. Roots Partners was established in the Summer of 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, to fill a visible need for committed grant writing specialists to help nonprofits increase their funding. We work with growing organizations with extra-large dreams of serving the most vulnerable populations in our communities. We are passionate about the organizations we serve and their worthwhile missions. We have helped nonprofits find and access the funding they needed to fully fund existing initiatives, start new programs, and cover operating costs that historically funded through individual donations. They have been awarded larger grants from existing funders and have tapped into funding they did not even know existed.
