What our clients have to say

“We’ve won over $3.6 million in federal workforce development grants by working with Krista and her team of grant writers. Once they helped us get that first $1.3 million grant, it opened the doors to a world of opportunities for our new nonprofit.

Now our programs are rapidly expanding and government officials and academic leaders are asking to work with us. Most of all, we’re training hundreds of West Virginians to get high-paying jobs that make broadband widespread in our state.

We love working with Krista and her team. They’re all sharp and incredible writers. We couldn’t have done any of this without them.”

-Darrell Pepper, Executive Director, Connec Train Corp, Client of 5 years

"We’re a small organization serving our Pacific Islander community through a culturally specific approach. Krista Kurlinkus, LLC understands our mission and values and in less than a year has helped us grow our housing assistance program and expand our youth development programming beyond Portland to southern Oregon.

We started with 1 staff and are now 10 statewide. We meet regularly to review our strategies and our awesome grant writer is very attentive and flexible with our often full schedule.

We highly recommend them if you’re looking to grow or even sustain your organization.”

-Jacinta Galea’i, Ph.D., Executive Director, Samoa Pacific Development Corporation, Client of 2 years

Jennifer Crow and students at Beautiful Dream Society

"We are so thrilled to be working with Krista Kurlinkus on our grant process. We have worked with other grant writers before, but Krista has made the process easy and professional. Krista has helped us get international grants from 4 different governments, the U.N., and private foundations to help fight human trafficking in Southern Africa. She is a delight, incredibly smart, and easy to work with! I highly recommend Krista!"
