About GivaGrant

Cheaper. Faster. Better.

After examining the market landscape for scholarships and grants software and tools, we found them to be expensive, inflexible, and not engaging for volunteers. We’ve learned the problem wasn’t capturing applicant data, but instead the user experience for those who donate their time and treasure. Simply said, the experience can be painful and surely not fun.

While GivaGrant provides a superior user experience for your applicants and program administrators, its true strength lies in the intuitive and engaging experience for volunteers and donors.

GivaGrant is a cloud-based software platform with a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) subscription model and no contracts required. It was built by a charitable foundation to solve a charity problem.

Testimonials

We were facing increased costs for our existing application platform that wasn’t easy for our volunteer judges to use, and so we had to decide – pay more or explore other options. GivaGrant gave us the opportunity to try a new product and continuously collected our input for ongoing development. We were able to onboard quickly, and it felt like a true partnership.
