Nichole is excellent to work with! As a small nonprofit that provides information and resources to Seniors, Caregivers and Professionals regardless of income level, RI Elder info sometimes finds it challenging to find funding that fits. Nichole was able to locate grants that were not well known that fund in the areas that RI Elder Info works in. She was able to identify functions that RI Elder Info could restructure to create stronger grant proposals that could potentially be funded in the future. Her professional insight was invaluable and she was excellent to work with! I highly recommend her!
Deb Burton, MS RI Elder Info
