The Grant Gal

About me

Hi, I'm Melissa Manzone. I started writing proposals right out of university because Victorian Novel Historian was already taken. Since then I've won state and federal grants and learned that the most valuable part of any grant project is you. Let's work together - bring your expertise and I'll bring my pen. Together we will achieve your goals.

Accolades

I’ve had the amazing opportunity to work with Melissa Manzone on several grant applications for our organization, and impeccability on her part is a mere scratch of the surface when it comes to her competency as a grant writer. I have worked with numerous individuals in as it relates applying for grant funds, and while most were average to good, I found Melissa to be head and shoulders above what I’ve found to be the normal expectation.
