About Fundtra
Our Story
Fundtra was founded in 2014 by Megan Kenna, a veteran fundraiser originally from the United States.
After 5 years in non-profit fundraising, Megan grew tired of working with slow-moving governments and agencies. She began fundraising and marketing for small, nimble, and dynamic startups, true leaders of innovation.
To date, more than 50 startups and scaleups have worked with Fundtra. More than $80 million in grants, VC capital, and crowdfunding has been raised.
Fundtra’s team of experienced grant writers are true Europeans, with more than 45 years of collective experience. Together, we’ve drafted more than 100 proposals for startups and early stage SMEs.
Since 2014, our fundraising experts have raised more than $80 million for clients!
Why Fundtra?
They say it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert in a field. While this number may not be exact, it contains a core of truth. No matter the field, becoming an expert takes years—even decades—of study, practice, and real-world experience.
Anyone who has founded a startup knows this first-hand. All challenges, large or small, take time, effort and skill. Fundraising grants is no exception.
Fundtra is dedicated to helping startups succeed. We work primarily with small- and medium-sized organizations who can because we know that’s where true innovation and disruption happens.
We provide tailored, professional, solutions for all our clients. There’s no assembly line here, we hand-craft all services with your business goals in mind.
You want to change the world. We want to help. It’s what we do..
Experienced writers
Words can change the world.
All of our writing consultants are native-English and have years of experience crafting winning funding proposals, designing, editing, and executing marketing campaigns, and pitching to VCs.
Fundtra writers have worked with Fortune 500 companies, venture capital funds, startups, scaleups, companies and non-profits, and everything in between.
Marketing expertise
Ultimately a grant proposal is a marketing document to showcase your business.
But your marketing can also help you win. Don’t have a website? LinkedIn profile not updated? This can all have an impact on your proposal.
Streamline your marketing with tailored, crafted content for each tool: website, digital ads, blog, newsletter and more.
Fundtra can also help with your marketing, to ensure that it generates results.
A record of success
Nothing is certain in life – or with grants for businesses. Each grant, each evaluator, each call, each deadline, is always slightly different.
At Fundtra, we are always honest with our clients. We do not promise success because no one can. We’ll always be realistic with you about your chances.
That’s also why we select our clients. We won’t work with you if we don’t think you have a true chance.
Work with us!
Fundtra currently includes more than six high-quality writers, a graphic designer, and two business advisors.
