A Funding Partner plan makes Northlight a recurring part of your organization’s funding work: monthly applications, ongoing research, and deadline tracking, billed monthly.
A partnership is a relationship, not a grant type.
Funding Partner plans aren’t another kind of application. They’re an ongoing service model for organizations that want Northlight working alongside them month after month.
Individual services
Need one thing done? Pick a specific service — one application, a Funding Match Report, or Grant Management — and pay a flat fee for that task.
An ongoing Northlight relationship — not another application package. Monthly research, opportunity identification, a funding calendar, strategy, and one foundation or state application each month.
One foundation or state application per month
Ongoing funding research
Funding opportunity identification
Funding calendar and deadline tracking
Ongoing funding strategy
Best for: Organizations that want a steady, year-round funding pipeline without buying services one at a time.
Expanded funding support for organizations pursuing multiple opportunities.
$5,000 / month
The higher-touch relationship: more extensive research and strategy, two to three foundation or state applications each month, deadline management, and reporting support.
Two to three foundation or state applications per month
More extensive funding research
Higher-touch grant strategy
Funding calendar and deadline management
Grant reporting and administrative support, as scoped
Compared with Funding Partner: two to three applications a month instead of one, deeper research and strategy, and reporting and administrative support as scoped during onboarding.
Best for: Organizations with several programs or projects to fund, or a funding calendar too full for staff to keep up with.
Federal applications are billed separately on every plan. Applications are not unlimited; included volume is listed on each plan. Partnerships are a monthly service relationship, not a type of grant application. Northlight prepares and supports funding applications, but funding decisions are made by the awarding organization. No grant award or funding amount is guaranteed.
