About Us

The Hillsborough Grants Collaborative is an all-volunteer run organization that provides opportunities for grant writers in all types of non-profits and governmental agencies to come together to learn, network and share ideas and insights.

MENTORS have been giving back to the community for over 25 years.  The meetings are free and your Executive Committee are considered experts in the fields of competitive grants writing and grant management. 

Our passion is giving back to the community and we are willing to assist and answer a variety of questions that you may have.  

  There is a nominal charge for our day-long conferences, which we always announce and provide content and registration information via email. 

When We Meet: 

Quarterly workshops will be held on August 21st, November 20th, February 19th and May 21st from 11:30-1:30.  Check Meeting Notices for complete information

Where We Meet: 

The Hillsborough Grants Collaborative meets at various non-profit agencies throughout the county. We try to locate the meetings in central areas. Always check the Meeting Notice tab for current information about meetings.  Detailed information can be found there.
