A Instrumentl Case Study
Habitat for Humanity DuPage Chicago South Suburbs, an affordable housing nonprofit, faced a time-consuming and inefficient process for finding grant opportunities. Their Grants Manager, Maureen McGuire, relied on antiquated databases and personal networks to identify potential funders, which was a laborious and often ineffective method for securing vital funding.
By implementing Instrumentl, a grants prospecting platform, the organization streamlined its search for new funders. Using Instrumentl's features like Smart Grant Matching and Reverse Search, the team quickly identified and secured a $20,000 grant from a previously unknown local funder within weeks of signing up. Instrumentl enabled them to find more relevant opportunities, collaborate more effectively, and ultimately secure more funding to support their mission.
