The CORE Workflow

  • 1. Research & Assessment

    We start by understanding your organization, goals, programs, and internal capacity. We review your current funding landscape, past applications, and available resources to identify strengths, gaps, and opportunities.

    Outcome: A clear understanding of your funding needs, priorities, and starting point.

  • 2. Strategy & Planning

    We develop a tailored funding strategy and prioritize high-fit opportunities aligned with your mission, timelines, and resources.

    We help you decide what to pursue now, what to plan for later, and what to avoid.

    Outcome: A focused funding roadmap and prioritized opportunity pipeline.

  • 3. Grant Writing & Submissions

    We prepare strong, data-driven grant applications and manage the submission process.

    This includes developing narratives, coordinating budgets, gathering supporting documents, and ensuring deadlines are met.

    Outcome: High-quality, competitive grant submissions.

  • 4. Tracking & Optimization

    We track funding outcomes, analyze performance, and identify trends across applications. We use this data to refine your funding strategy and improve success rates over time.

    Outcome: A continuously improving, sustainable funding system.

  • “Working with CORE shifted how we think about grants. The strategic guidance and prioritization saved our team significant time and helped us focus on the right funding opportunities.”
