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.

The belin quartet was established in the year 2000 by a grant to the civic music association from the iowa foundation for education, environment, and the arts, a charitable foundation created by david belin. His vision that the whole community should have the opportunity to share the joys of classical music is realized through the belin quartet. Each year the quartet entertains over 1000 people at its indoor and outdoor lunchtime concerts. Additionally they annually perform to more than 500 students and senior citizens in area schools and the wesley retirement community.
