Grantivo is a grant writing platform for nonprofits and grant professionals. It combines funder research with proposal writing and review, so you can look up a funder's giving history, write your proposal, and check it against their requirements before you submit.

How is Grantivo different from using ChatGPT?

ChatGPT doesn't know your funder, your organization, or the grant requirements. Grantivo has data on 100,000+ foundations and keeps your context across every session, so feedback is specific to your proposal and the funder you're applying to.

Yes. All core features are free, including funder research, foundation profiles, proposal editing, and requirement tracking. You only pay when you use AI assistance for drafting or review. No credit card required to start.

Can I use Grantivo for any type of grant?

Yes. Grantivo works with foundation grants, government RFPs, corporate giving programs, and any funding opportunity that requires a written proposal.

Fiscal Sponsorship: Good Counsel provides fiscal sponsorship to groups aligned with its mission to support social entrepreneurs and emerging nonprofits. In 2024, we managed tax-deductible donations and grants for various charitable projects, including Bumble Bee Agency and Project Liberation. The Bumble Bee Agency quickly established itself as a trusted partner for families navigating medical, educational, and disability support systems, helping multiple families secure IEP eligibility, developing customized care coordination tools, and launching practical caregiver resources. Project Liberation continued to empower justice-involved women through trauma-informed programs.

Program 2

$250

Internship Program: In 2024, Good Counsel Services completed its sixth year of partnership with Michigan State University Social Science Science Scholars Program. Through this collaboration, our internship program continues to launch legal careers, build student self confidence , and inspire undergraduates to pursue pro-social professions. Participants consistently report an excellent experience, describing the opportunity as both hands-on and deeply insightful into the legal and nonprofit fields. This year, three Social Science Scholar interns worked closely with our team, gaining practical skills in nonprofit management and exposure to real-world legal practice.
