EDA 50/50 Match Projects

ETCOG staff area available to assist members with seeking grant opportunities and successfully submitting applications.
Research, Writing, & Administration
RESEARCH. Researching any type of grant for ETCOG members is always free of charge.
WRITING. We charge a minimal 5% fee for writing a grant; half of which is paid when the project begins and the remaining half is paid upon grant submission.
ADMINISTRATION. We can provide post-award administration for a reasonable fee as needed. Our preference is to write administrative fees into the grant budget so your organization does not have to pay out of pocket. Post-award services include:
