What Grant Current does
Grant Current is a managed service for charities with budgets under $5 million. Every week it finds grants that match your cause and location, checks the eligibility fine print, and drafts each application from your own documents. You review, edit, and submit. The rate is flat: $1,000 onboarding, then $250 a month or $2,500 a year, never a percentage of your funding.
