In 2020, I won over $400,000 in grants for my clients. For the past five years, I have worked full-time as a fundraising company grant writer, manager, and administrator. Unfortunately, that company has fallen upon hard times so I am excited to be back on Upwork as an active freelancer. Here is what my clients had to say: Thanks for the fantastic on point writing, great communication, and speedy turn-around. Looking forward to working on more projects together. Gabriel Sanchez, Family Help Institute in Brownsville, Brooklyn. Mike H. was AWESOME! He read over the grant and asked us preliminary questions to get a better understanding of our non-profit. His research skills were impeccable! My non-profit team could not be happier about our decision in working with Mike. We will definitely be working together again the future.

I am an expert grant writer who works exclusively with nonprofits. I have a master's of public health degree and am passionate about healthcare, mental health, health equity and disparities, mental health, and housing. I have worked as a grant funder, a manager of grant-funded programs, an independent evaluator for a federally funded (SAMHSA) grant, and have been applying to grants since 2017. I've been in the nonprofit sector since 2008. My expertise includes: Funding: identification of grant/funding opportunities, development of grant application materials, grant proposal writing, submission, application tracking and more. Program planning: program design, background research, identification of evidence-based practices, budgeting, timeline creation, logic models, goal setting, and so on. Evaluation: quantitative and qualitative methodology, outcome evaluation design, process evaluation design, instrument selection or creation, implementation fidelity guidelines, data collection procedures, protection of subjects/participants, data analysis plans, and reporting results to multiple audiences. Areas of expertise include: ✅ nonprofits ✅ public health ✅ healthcare ✅ mental health ✅ substance use disorders ✅ housing/homelessness ✅ social justice ✅ LGBTQ+ issues

When organizations need funding secured, contracts won, or policy translated into persuasive, decision-ready documents — they call me. I am a grant writer, proposal strategist, and policy writer with four years of experience delivering competitive submissions across the full spectrum of public and private funding. My portfolio spans federal grant applications, government RFP responses, foundation proposals, policy briefs, and program design narratives — serving nonprofits, behavioral health providers, workforce development agencies, affordable housing developers, federal contractors, and international development organizations. The numbers tell the story: 75+ submissions delivered, $2.1M+ in supported awards, and zero disqualified applications across every engagement. That record exists because I treat every submission as a compliance document first and a persuasion document second. I read the solicitation before I write a word. I build a compliance matrix before I write a sentence. And I write every section with the evaluator's scoring criteria in front of me — not behind me. My grant writing covers SAMHSA behavioral health programs, HUD CDBG and HOME housing applications, DOL workforce development grants, USDA rural development funding, DOJ reentry and public safety grants, HRSA community health proposals, and private and corporate foundation LOIs and full proposals. My RFP and proposal writing covers technical volumes, management plans, past performance narratives, and price justifications for federal solicitations across construction, facilities, health services, and professional services. My policy writing produces white papers, legislative summaries, program design frameworks, logic models, and theory of change documents that strengthen funding applications and organizational strategy. I work remotely, move efficiently across multiple concurrent deadlines, and communicate clearly at every stage. I do not disappear after the kickoff call and resurface at the deadline. You hear from me throughout. If you have a solicitation, a funding deadline, or a policy document that needs to be right — send it over. Let's build something worth submitting.
