Grants are never guaranteed. However, hiring an experienced grant writer does increase the chances of being awarded a grant. Without a grant writer, the average is a 1 in 7 chance. Grant proposals that are prepared by professional grant writers usually have a 60% chance of approval.

Nonprofits are constantly seeking new funding streams to stay afloat, so if you work for a nonprofit, you’ve probably seen that grant writers are always in demand.
