Grants Over Coffee is a practical, down-to-earth guide designed to help new and emerging businesses and nonprofits master the art of grant writing and fundraising without being overwhelmed. Written for grassroots leaders, founders, and staff working in organizations five years old or younger, the book breaks down the grant process into everyday language, like a conversation over a good cup of coffee. It demystifies everything from 501(c)(3) status to budgets, letters of inquiry, and reporting, all while making the reader feel capable and empowered.

This book was written because too many small businesses and nonprofits, especially leaders located in under-resourced communities, miss out on critical funding simply because they lack access to training, tools, or mentorship. Grants Over Coffee fills that gap with relatable examples, interactive exercises, and real-life strategies that help these organizations fund their missions and build long-term sustainability.
