Step into your role as an emerging fundraising professional with confidence. In just 8 weeks, On Hill Development LLC will train you to build a grant pipeline, write competitive proposals, and manage grants like a pro, all while working with real funding opportunities.
Built for emerging fundraising and development professionals who are new to grants or stepping into grant focused leadership. Ideal for staff in their first 0 to 2 years, teams without a dedicated grants department, and leaders who want to build in house grant capacity and train internal talent to lead the work confidently.
You will leave with a fundable grant pipeline aligned to your programs, a 6 to 12 month grants calendar, stronger proposal writing skills, and a repeatable submission process. We also cover compliant grant budgets, required attachments, and a practical 90 day action plan you can use immediately.
This is a 1 on 1 coaching program delivered over 8 weeks with two sessions per week (1.5 hours each), for 24 coaching hours total. Grant review and technical support are included during the program and for 90 days after completion so you have expert feedback as you implement your grant system.
