About Us
Empowering changemakers through smarter funding strategies.
Our Mission: Fueling Social Impact
Our mission is to empower the organizations that build stronger communities. We connect the visionaries in public health, education, social services, and community development with the funding they need to turn their vital work into measurable, positive societal impact. We believe the grant seeking process should be an accelerator for your mission, not a barrier. GrantAct was meticulously crafted to ensure that your groundbreaking projects receive the strategic support they deserve.
Our Story: From Evidence to Impact
Every year, billions of grant dollars are misaligned, and countless hours are lost to inefficient searches. At our consulting firm, Demoscopica, we saw this firsthand. For years, we have partnered with organizations on the front lines of social change, providing them with comprehensive program evaluations and public health research. Our core work involves translating complex data into actionable knowledge, but we saw these impactful organizations being diverted from their primary missions by the demoralizing search for grant funding. We knew our core competency—data analysis—could solve this critical bottleneck. We decided to build the tool we knew they needed: a smarter, more strategic way to secure funding, born from a deep understanding of the sectors they serve.
Our Expertise: The Demoscopica Difference
Our foundation in Demoscopica means we are public health researchers, program evaluators, and data strategists. Our professional lives are dedicated to the same fields you work in. We understand the nuances of a logic model, the importance of a community needs assessment, and the story the data tells. This perspective is embedded in the DNA of GrantAct. While other platforms offer simple keyword searches, our application leverages a sophisticated analytical engine. It goes beyond surface-level matching by analyzing a funder's history, priorities, and previously awarded projects to assess true alignment. Our goal is to optimize the fit between your project's objectives and a funder's demonstrated interests, dramatically increasing your probability of success.
Our Vision for the Future
We envision a world where evidence-based programs are seamlessly connected to strategic funding. Our vision is for GrantAct to be more than a search tool; we see it as an essential part of the modern non-profit and public service toolkit. We are committed to expanding its capabilities to help you not only find funding but also track your impact and demonstrate your value—completing the cycle from evidence-based planning to proven societal good. GrantAct is the logical extension of our work at Demoscopica: not just evaluating impact, but actively enabling it from day one.
