Grant Writing

About the Opportunity

ILH is searching for (2) grant writers, one to write for our educational program and the other to write for houses grants. The volunteers will be writing for foundations, cooperations, private State and City grants. We are hoping to acquire $50,000 in education and housing grants a mimiual within the 9 weeks.
.
To implement this grant writing project, we'll need two meetings with a volunteer. In our first meeting, we will provide you with a copy and review the application draft with you. We'll align on expectations and agree on the project timeline. Next, you'll review our document using the track changes function checking for inconsistencies and continuity errors, and creates a list of recommended changes to share with us. The project will conclude after up to two rounds of edits which the volunteer will make the agreed-upon changes to the document.

We are hoping to have some funds to re-enter the Detroit Public Schools Community District in the Spring of 2026 if not before then. We are hoping to have some funds toward purchasing our first duplex to houses our program out of it.

We have a dedicated team member for the project who will provide you with the document that needs to be reviewed in an easily shareable format. (Microsoft Word, Google Docs, etc.) We'll also send you the proposal and application guidelines. We will share our history, data, Mission and vision with our volunteers' writers and whatever is needed.

The organization is responding to a need in the community that has been unmet by the Detroit Public Schools and Detroit Wayne County Mental Health Authority. ILH will provide independent living programs such as educational training (with coursework), Conflict Resolution, English, Financial Literacy, math, science, social science, reading, writing, art, leadership development, and individual, group, and family therapy to promote higher self-esteem.
