How We Work

Imago Development is based in relationship building. A relationship is built with the nonprofit organization to develop a clear understanding of organizational strengths and needs and with funding sources to make strong lasting partnerships to develop programs and services.

Grant writing is a collaborative process between the organization and the writer. We work together to build a strong proposal.  Imago Development researches potential funding sources and strives to make the best match possible between your organizational need and a foundation’s priorities. Successful matching between these two is a proven strategy. The success rate for applications where this process is followed is 75% or better.
