Services
Three clear ways to work together.
Whether you need a one-time application or an ongoing grant partner, there’s a service that fits. Most clients start with a Funding Roadmap.
How it works
Discover, draft, submit.
Three steps from idea to submitted application. Start with a Funding Roadmap to know exactly what to pursue — then bring us in for the drafting and submission when you’re ready.
Discover
We research the full grant landscape — federal, provincial, foundations, corporate, municipal — and identify the programs you actually qualify for.
Draft
We handle the writing. Modern tools help us move faster than traditional consultants — your application is ready in days, not weeks.
Review & submit
Every application is carefully reviewed for accuracy, compliance, and voice before submission. Your reputation is on the line — and so is ours.
Funding Roadmap
Know exactly what you qualify for.
A curated written report — your grant readiness scorecard, top 5–10 matched programs, and a 90-day application calendar. Followed by an optional 30-minute walk-through call to discuss findings and next steps. Starts with a free Funding Snapshot — no cost to find out if we’re a fit.

What you’re paying for
The public list shows some of what’s out there in Canada — a starting point, not the complete picture. Knowing what exists is the easy part. The work Grants Lab does — matching the right grant to your organization, drafting an application strong enough to win, and managing the process from start to submission — is what turns an opportunity into funding.
