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.

Mission

Our mission is to establish and maintain an inclusive brand that serves as the foundational platform for youth outreach and community development efforts through programmatic initiatives that promote positive outcomes and progressive changes in the cultural climate of the inner city. Through our primary focus on youth outreach and enrichment, we design programs for underserved students that provide mentorship and socio-emotional learning opportunities while bridging post-secondary education persistence, career pathways, and workforce development resources for youth and their families as they transition into early adulthood.

O.U.R. Prep Academy is a post-secondary bridge program and an extension of our ICAN program. OUR Prep Academy functions as a separate phase of programming and targets high school graduates interested in pursuing post-secondary education as either students or student-athletes but due to their varying circumstances may not be ready for full-time enrollment. OUR Prep affords high school graduates in the year immediately following graduation with support and guidance to aid in their development academically, personally, socially, or athletically while preparing them to achieve at the next level. OUR Prep assisted with the application, FAFSA, and enrollment of over 20 students into college part-time with all students successfully transferring into full-time college students.
