Words of praise
from past clients and collaborators…
“Transport Group had a lean staff and we were stretched very thin at the time we engaged Stef Caragliano's services. Stef managed the entire grant writing process and wrote an extremely challenging and complex grant application during a very busy period in our season. Stef's work surpassed all of my expectations. The writing was thoughtful and nuanced - every detail was carefully monitored and considered. Stef is professional, considerate and wonderful to work with. ”
Denise Dickens, Executive Director, Transport Group

“I had the pleasure of having Stef as a colleague during my time in the development department at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. They were smart, efficient, and knowledgeable about arts and culture grant writing, bringing creativity and an entrepreneurial mindset to their work. I am thrilled to recommend Stef as a consultant to any organization looking to strengthen its fundraising efforts.”

“As a queer artist fundraising for my LGBT+ community, I felt not only supported by Stef’s incredible writing skills but also emboldened in our work because they could help articulate our mission and importance to our funders and wider community. I’m so grateful for their incredible support, wisdom, and care and they have my highest recommendation.”
