The Real Crisis

The Crisis Isn't Capital.
It's Capacity.

We're solving 21st-century problems with a depleted, 20th-century labor model. The funding exists. The capacity to reach it doesn't.

70%
The Admin Burden
Executive Directors spend 70% of their time on administrative tasks instead of delivering on their mission.
$7B
The Opportunity Gap
In available grants that go unclaimed annually because organizations lack the internal capacity to apply.
53%
The Fragility
Of nonprofits operate with less than three months of cash reserves — zero margin for strategic growth.

"We are attempting to solve 21st-century problems with a depleted, 20th-century labor model. It is not a funding problem — it is a capacity problem."

The FundReady Way

✅~96% Cost Reduction ($2,400 avg annual)
💪Outcome: Autonomy and internal capacity
⚙️Deliverable: Internal Strategic Infrastructure
♾️Capacity stays with your team — reused for every future grant
"Build capacity, don't rent it." $2,400/year vs. $60,000 consultant
The Framework

The 'Core 4' Ecosystem

We don't just write text. We build the internal systems that make you fundable.

Core 1
Theory of Change
A rigorous visual framework showing the causal link from inputs to long-term impact. The foundation funders look for first.
Core 2
Logic Model
The operational roadmap connecting activities to measurable outcomes. Turns good intentions into provable results.
Core 3
Aligned Budget
Every dollar mapped to an activity. Every activity linked to an outcome. Budgets that inspire funder confidence.
Core 4
Fundable Proposal
The narrative that connects the dots — coherent, compelling, and backed by the three frameworks above.
All four converge into one outcome: Fundable Capacity
