What is the Grants Collaborative?

The Grants Collaborative of Tampa Bay is a group of local professionals whose main roles include grant planning, proposal writing, and resource development. More than 55 members make up the Collaborative, representing a wide range of non-profit human service agencies, local government, independent for-profit consultants, schools, colleges and universities, funding sources, and those seeking funding. Established in 1993 as the Pinellas Grants Collaborative, the organization changed its name in 2006 to better reflect its regional scope. The Grants Collaborative of Tampa Bay, Inc. is a 501(c)(6) organization.
