AmiKha Consulting specializes in providing grant writing, grant research, funding strategy development, grant preparedness, and funder cultivation and relationship-building support to nonprofits that are advancing gender justice, human rights, democracy, and social change.
Helping social justice nonprofits access more grants and advance social change advocacy.
Our team has 30 years of combined experience in grant writing for gender justice and human rights-focused nonprofits and has secured over $15 million in funding for the social justice movement in the US and internationally.
We work with U.S-based social justice nonprofits and NGOs in the Majority World (Global South) that are addressing the systemic and intentional oppression of the most marginalized populations.
Access to funding to advance gender justice, human rights, and social change doesn’t have to depend on a nonprofit's size or location.
We can be the grants department for your nonprofit for 12 months supporting you to access more grants with an efficient grant revenue stream for your organization.
By working with AmiKha Consulting, your nonprofit’s leadership will have more time to focus on the most essential work: scaling impact and advancing social change while we handle grants.
