Free Grant Consultation

Start the Journey to Funding With Expert Guidance—At No Cost to You

At The Sierra Jacob Foundation, we believe that access to grant funding should start with access to information and support—especially for smaller nonprofits and municipalities doing critical work with limited resources.

That’s why we offer free consultations for New York-based nonprofit organizations and municipalities interested in grant writing and grant management services.


What’s Included in the Free Consultation?

Your consultation is designed to give you actionable insights and a clear next step. During the session, we’ll discuss:

  • Your organization’s mission, structure, and funding needs

  • Current or upcoming projects you’d like to fund

  • Your grant history (if any) and organizational readiness

  • Potential local, state, federal, or foundation grant opportunities

  • How The Sierra Jacob Foundation can support you with grant writing, proposal development, and grant management

Whether you’re just starting your first grant search or looking for better outcomes after previous attempts, this consultation is a no-pressure, information-rich conversation to help you move forward.


Who Can Book a Free Consultation?

We offer free consultations to:

  • Nonprofits based in New York State, with priority for those located in the Hudson Valley

  • Nonprofit organizations with annual earnings of $50,000 or less

  • New and emerging organizations seeking funding guidance

  • Local governments and municipal departments exploring grant-funded solutions

Why We Do It

We know that early-stage and grassroots organizations are often excluded from professional grant support because of budget constraints. We believe in building capacity from the ground up—starting with free access to expertise. Our goal is to help you understand the grant process, plan effectively, and access services that truly meet your needs.
