The Challenge
Jewish New Teacher Project (JNTP) improves student learning by accelerating the effectiveness of new teachers and school leaders in Jewish day schools across the denominational spectrum. A former Giving Tree client, JNTP reached out for assistance in grant writing during a particularly busy season during which their in house development team was managing other priorities. JNTP had several grant applications and reports due to various funders over the course of just six weeks.

The Impact
Jewish New Teacher Project was awarded all of the grant proposals supported by Giving Tree Associates

How We Work Together
Giving Tree worked efficiently and effectively to gather information, review previous grant applications and learn about the organization’s programs and budget. Giving Tree edited and updated six grant proposals and reports ranging from $5,000 to $1.5 million during the six week period.

Key Project Elements

  • Writing and editing current grant reports and proposals
  • Program analysis and evaluation to support donor communications and reporting

Services Provided

  • Grant writing
  • Development communications

“I just finished my first project with Giving Tree and it went extremely well... Our consultant is a real pleasure to work with. She listens well, takes copious notes, asks good clarifying questions, is mindful of schedules and deadlines, and really understands the whole grant writing process. I am so relieved to have their help given all of our deadlines!”
