Case Study: Thrive Allen County secures stronger grants and saves time with Polco

Thrive Allen County wins $20M grants faster with Polco

Thrive Allen County, a health non-profit serving rural Kansas, faced the challenge of writing over 60 grants annually with limited staff and resources. The grant writer spent excessive time collecting the necessary public data and resident input required to build strong applications. To streamline this process, the organization turned to vendor Polco and its data dashboard service, Track by Polco.

Polco provided Thrive Allen County with immediate access to curated public data dashboards, saving significant research time. The vendor's tools also enabled the non-profit to efficiently collect wider resident input through surveys. This solution allowed the grant writer to craft stronger narratives for applications, including a $20 million EPA grant and a $500,000 broadband grant, significantly increasing their likelihood of securing critical funding for community initiatives.
