The Californer/10164671

CLEVELAND - Californer -- Linda Peavy, the owner of LiPav Consulting, LLC, is offering virtual free grant writing training for organizations needing to increase their fund development. She launched her company in 2008 as an avenue for providing marketing communications to nonprofits and faith-based organizations. In 2009, she was asked to lead a nonprofit and quickly realized that grant writing would be necessary to keep the organization afloat. From this opportunity, her focus on providing funding services to other nonprofit organizations began.

LiPav Consulting, LLC has written grants and business development funding totaling over $17 million. Her area of specialty includes educational institutions, charter schools, and faith-based organizations, even though she has helped secure funds for youth-based organizations, ex-offender programs, workforce development, veteran organizations, and more.
