Two Funding Specialists

Making a Difference.

A+ Grants was founded by two classroom teachers who grew tired of hearing, “We don’t have the budget.” They saw students go without resources, programs delayed, and communities underserved — not because funding didn’t exist, but because accessing it felt impossible.

So they built a firm that understands the system from the inside out.

AREAS OF SERVICE

Early Literacy (K-3)

Public safety grants are often overlooked, yet they provide dependable, repeatable funding opportunities year after year. Many applications in this sector are straightforward and checklist-driven.

We help municipalities and nonprofits secure funding for fire and EMS equipment, emergency preparedness, disaster response, and community safety initiatives.

Rural & Small District Education

Rural and small communities often have significant need — and fewer organizations competing for the same dollars. Funders are increasingly focused on closing resource gaps in underserved areas.

We help districts and community programs secure funding for classroom resources, technology, enrichment programs, teacher support, and initiatives that expand opportunity for rural students.


Public Safety & Emergency Services

Early literacy remains one of the highest priorities for foundations and education-focused funders. Programs with clear student growth data and research-backed outcomes are especially competitive for grant awards.

We support funding for reading interventions, literacy initiatives, curriculum resources, teacher training, and student support programs that create lasting academic impact.

Community Foundations & Nonprofits


Community foundations and nonprofit organizations play a critical role in strengthening local communities and expanding access to essential programs and services. A Plus Grants helps organizations identify strategic funding opportunities that support long term sustainability, community impact, and organizational growth.
