    We had the pleasure of working with Aaron for our Cancer Prevention Grant.  Without his help, we could not have gotten it done!  Aaron is prompt, knowledgeable, and great team player.  He punctuated the project with a high level of sophistication.  Thank you Aaron!  We hope to work together soon.”

    I am a solar sales and installation company.  I had the pleasure of hiring Aaron to apply for a first time, new, State of California solar grant.  My solar client was easily approved for the maximum grant of $300,000.  Aaron is easy to work with, knowledgeable and reasonably priced.  I hope to have the chance to use his services again.  He is well worth it.

  • I am writing this unsolicited letter of recognition in support of Aaron Rome, Grant Writer for his help in gaining our organization a Federal Grant award. I operate the Veterans Accession House, a nonprofit organization providing transitional housing to homeless veterans. Last year I became aware that the Department of Veterans Affairs released a notice of funding for their Grant Per Diem program. The grant program was just the help we needed to sustain and grow our program. However, the level of technical expertise needed to navigate the website, develop program services, and write the grant, caused me to hesitate nearly not apply for funding. I search for a grant writer and learned that their are few actual nonprofit grant writers available. I discovered Aaron Rome, but was hesitant to contract with someone halfway across the country; how would that possibly work? I took a chance and reached out to Aaron and learned that he has an extensive background in nonprofit grant writing with a history of successful awards to his credit. He explained the process and requirements, setting me at ease. He was in constant contact with me and helped outline a grant developmental plan, which involved so many considerations I could not have anticipated. He studied the grant requires and educated me on the perimeters, limitations, and important possibilities for use of the grant. He walked me in, and through the entire process, patiently counseling; offering suggestions on how best to express our program purpose and intention for the grant funding. As a result, the grant was complete on-time and rated high enough to be selected for final consideration. This month, we received notice from the Veterans Affairs, that our organization has been selected for the Grant Per Diem award. We have been awarded 100 percent of the funds applied for. This was a considerably competitive process and throughout the process, we were recognized for the quality of the program proposal submitted.

    We owe many thanks to you Aaron, and look forward to our next project!

    Working with Aaron was like working with someone who has been my colleague for years. We called on him to work on a moment’s notice and he jumped in with both feet; availing himself to us exclusively. The ease with which Aaron translated our program’s complex needs into the intricate language of two federal grant proposals was remarkable. Through his impressive communication and steadfast work ethic, Aaron emerged as a teacher and mentor on the intricacies of grant writing for our team. I will not hesitate to recommend Aaron Rome to any organization in need of top-notch, comprehensive grant writing services!

  • Robert Basile, Psy.D., Director of Clinical Services, Metropolitan Center for Mental Health (NY, NY)

    Aaron was hired at the 11th hour to complete a grant with no prior knowledge of our organization. He worked seamlessly with me to acquire the necessary information in guiding the process – a first for me – from start to finish. Aaron did not flinch in his organization or responsiveness. Needless to say, we submitted on time and were successfully awarded our grant request ($126,000).

  • Dr. Alan Jackson, Vice President, Hiwassee College

    I cannot tell you how great you have been and how much I value your guidance.  I have learned a great deal.  You showed as much concern for the success of the grant for the college as someone from an in-house grants office would.  I did not expect that level of care from a contractor.

    Aaron exceeded all of our expectations! He worked with us to understand our vision and effectively communicated it in every grant that he successfully wrote (so far we are 2 for 2!). He was always available, flexible, and easy to work with. We will continue to consult Aaron Rome, and you should too.

  • David Cooper, Stairbuilders & Manufacturers Association

    Aaron steered us through the complexities of the STTR (SBIR) grant submission process, coaching us and communicating directly with our research institution.  Given a narrow 4 week time frame Aaron delivered with days to spare.

  • Elke, Business owner

    Absolutely  you were a great help to me!

  • Ann Burnett, FreeD.O.M. Clinic USA

    Our organization is quite pleased with the grant written by Aaron Rome. In fact, the grant review committee member expressed that of all the grants that were received, ours was the most clear and concise. This is specifically attributed to Aaron’s professional experience and we are grateful to his contribution in securing the highest grant award in our organization’s 20 year history.
