Full-Cycle Grant Management: From Pre-Award to Post-Award Support

I’m sure you’ve stayed up past midnight wrestling with a grant deadline more than once… only to wake up one day and realize you’ve applied to 10 grants and asked funders to cover 150% of your program director’s salary.

You probably know that sinking feeling — questioning yourself: “I wish I had paid closer attention. Do I send a revised budget? Will the funder notice? Should I just hope they don’t?”

It happens to the best of us. This is just one of the results of bootstrapping your way forward, wearing all the hats, without the right tools or systems in place, and chasing every opportunity. That’s why we take grant writing off your plate — so you can lead, not hustle. We help you build the grant-writing systems your organization needs so you can stop worrying about deadlines and start focusing on growing the impact of your nonprofit.

Working with Kalyani Consulting has been a transformative experience for our organization. As a nonprofit dedicated to enriching the lives of children through therapeutic equestrian programs, we rely heavily on grant funding to sustain and grow our mission. They brought not only deep expertise in grant writing but also a genuine understanding of our values and goals. Thanks to their support, we’ve secured critical funding that has allowed us to expand our reach and enhance our programming. We are deeply grateful for their professionalism, insight, and unwavering commitment to helping nonprofits thrive.

Meet Kalyani: 13+ Years Getting Nonprofits Funded

I help nonprofit leaders of small- to mid-sized organizations move from hustling for grants at the last minute to running a calm, strategic, and well-funded grant program.

With over 13 years of experience in fund development, I’ve helped organizations transform their grant chaos into a well-functioning grants department — where staff across programs, finance, and leadership work together seamlessly on proposals and reports. I’ve also guided dozens of executive directors in building sustainable systems that reduce stress and earn funder trust.

I know what it’s like to juggle multiple hats while trying to grow an organization — and I’ve made it my mission to give nonprofit leaders the tools, strategies, and support they need to lead with confidence, instead of scrambling to meet deadlines.

I have worked with Kalyani on several successfully funded projects, as well as formal reporting processes. I appreciate her attention to detail, her masterful writing, and the way she asks questions that get me to think deeper about ways to partner and engage through grant processes.

Benefits

I've worked with Kalyani and referred her as a grant writer/consultant to several nonprofits. I respect her skills, competencies, work ethic, leadership style and integrity. When I decided to retire, I chose Kalyani to support one of my most valued clients with grant writing services. She's delivered strong outcomes and served this and other organizations well. I strongly recommend Kalyani as a first-rate fund development professional.
