History of Grants To You

Paul Baskin founded Grants To You (formerly Grants For You) in 2001 in order to utilize the untapped talent and availability of primarily senior citizens and students to help their favorite, local nonprofit with their never ending quest for funds by assisting them with their grant research and writing. Since that time, GTU has grown from two chapters to 15 located in the States of New York, Indiana, Georgia, California, Oklahoma, Ohio, and Arizona. Volunteer graduates have helped to win over $1,500,000 for local agencies they have selected. Grants To You is a nonprofit corporation in good standing in the State of Arizona under the name The Lifespan Foundation dba Grants To You. GTU chapters operate independently under the guidelines provided during their formation process. Each chapter has its own Advisory Council made up of local citizens who have an interest in supporting nonprofit activities.

Vision

Imagine a world in which nonprofits have ready access to well trained and motivated volunteers to assist them in their grant research and writing efforts. Consider the community impact of agencies having fully funded programs that would improve the quality of life for all citizens.

Mission

Grants To You is a nonprofit, 501c3 that utilizes experienced grant writers to provide low cost, live training to volunteer-beginners who will assist their designated, local agency with their grant research and writing. Three online classes are also provided. GTU graduates earn Community Service Credits on completion of a class as well as having the ability to help their favorite, local nonprofit organization while at the same time, sharpening their research and writing skill sets.

Goals

  • Continue to expand the number of GTU chapters throughout the United States that will provide volunteer grant training by offering local grant writing workshops.
  • Expand funds development efforts including grants; identify GTU volunteer graduates who would like to help. Utilize such funding in order to upgrade the GTU WEB Site and to add additional online classes to support local nonprofit agencies.
  • Provide more effective support to new GTU Chapter Coordinators who are implementing grant writing and researach training to local volunteers.
  • Implement more effective ways to get new chapters off and running. Create a new chapter Greeting Package.
  • Expand marketing efforts to enable us to establish more chapters and hype our newly launched online grants class.
  • Grow the Board of Directors of Grants To You to include members who reside outside the Arizona area.
