What Everyone is Saying about iPlume

Even before launching iPlume Grant Essentials, our grant writing expertise has made a proven difference

quote-beg
"I’ve spent about an hour with the program and have already gained valuable insights, particularly from the templates provided. Our team has often struggled with navigating the wide range of available grants, and having a structured way to organize our prospecting efforts is truly invaluable. I know it is going to change the way we do business!"
– Tanya Priske, Executive Director, Centre for Women in Business
"This training was really great! I would strongly encourage any organization feeling the burden of grant writing to participate in Amanda’s training. She is very knowledgeable and gives clear, simple advice you can apply right away. Her list of supporting documents is fantastic. I now feel I can tackle grant writing with much more confidence just by following her steps!”
– Ingrid Broussillon
“Love all the check lists, all the documents you shared. Love all of them! It really increased my self confidence in my next grant application. Thanks Amanda! 💕.”
– Anonymous
“Amanda was very thorough and open to questions. I think it is very useful that we walk away with a folder of resources that can be used moving forward.”
– Megan Marshall
"The structure and tools provided were excellent i am excited to build my own "killing" applications as soon as I can, and send them out ASAP!"
– Thauana Morais
"Amazing workshop. Really helpful. Useful right away."
– Alex McCann
"Amanda from iPlume Writing provided detailed, constructive feedback on Imhotep's Legacy Academy's (ILA) grant application for their core programming. Her comments on the application highlighted strengths while offering actionable improvements for future submissions. The consultancy assisted with refinements mainly enhancing clarity and measurability rather than altering core elements. ILA team members expressed appreciation, noting its value for future reports and collaborations."
– Asher Trim-Gaskin, Imhotep's Legacy Academy
"Really good training for ANY kind of professional interested in expanding knowledge on fund development. The materials provided are very practical and useful to apply in applications right away."
– Thauana Morais
