Struggling to Get Grant Funding for Your Mission?

You’ve got the vision. Now get the money to match it, with coaching that makes grant writing clear, doable, and successful.

Why is Grant Writing So Frustrating?

You’re doing life changing work but grant funding can feel like a brick wall.

You’re running a mission, not a writing shop.

You’ve applied before—silence.

Funding got cut, and you’re not sure where to turn.


Grant “language” feels like money left on the table.

Managing current grants is overwhelming—and risky.

Every rejection starts to feel personal. But it’s not you, it’s the system. And I’ll help you beat it.

Robin Payne

Owner of Robin Payne Consulting (Awarded $350k Federal and State Funding)


"Guy answered my S.O.S. and helped write the proposal in 2.5 days while educating me on the process in real time. Thanks to Guy's help, we awarded our first $10,000 grant to conduct an innovative mentoring program for youth mental health."

Dr. Angie Jenkins

Admin - Pastor of City of Praise Fellowship (Awarded $10k Foundation Funding)

"As a non-profit leader, navigating grant writing can be challenging, but with Access GRANT-Ed on board, the journey has been transformative. Guy Holley has not only shown impressive proficiency in grant writing, but has also ensured that our team understands the process."

Diana Sullivan

Director of Operations Foundation for Homelessness & Poverty Management (Awarded $228k State Funding)

Guy Holley's excellent presentation far exceeded my expectations, and serves as a reminder of the importance of thoroughly explaining our goals and objectives. Having worked for so many years with community health centers, it is easy to forget that individuals whose work is outside of the primary care arena may have little knowledge of the specific health metrics we constantly monitor and the goals we aspire to reach as an industry standard. Those who lack an understanding of why we seek to reach particular goals may have limited awareness of what is at stake should we fail.”

Dan Miles

CFO, Gateway Health Center (Awarded $88k Foundation Funding)

As a 4-H Agent in the North Carolina 4-H Professional Development Association, I thoroughly enjoyed and gleaned from Guy's presentation on grant writing and sourcing. He was accurate and understood our organization, which is very niche. He had done his research, and his information was relevant and useful to our particular learning needs.

The presentation was interactive with audience participation while still keeping us on task.”

Hannah Peeler

4-H Agent & 2025 NCAE4HYDP Professional Development Coordinator


As a result of Mr. Holley's training, I feel more confident about answering grant application questions. I've learned how to reduce "The Fluff" to make my responses more powerful."

Diedra Evans

Director- Hertford County Center for Aging

Everyone should take this. Great information and knowledge.”

“The workshop was very informative and helpful as Mr. Holley. The drive and passion for this topic was demonstrated by Mr. Holley which kept me engaged for the workshop.”

Dacia Jenkins

We drove 4-hours for this training and we would do it all over again because of the value Mr. Holley delivered during our training.”
