What is the Grants Collaborative?
The Grants Collaborative of Tampa Bay is a group of local professionals whose primary job responsibilities include grant planning, proposal writing, and/or resource development. More than 55 members comprise the Collaborative and include a broad representation from non-profit human service agencies, local government, independent for-profit consultants, schools, colleges and universities, funding sources, and those seeking funding. Formed in 1993 as the Pinellas Grants Collaborative, our name was changed in 2006 to reflect the organization's regional membership. The Grants Collaborative of Tampa Bay, Inc. is a 501(c)(6) organization.
