Vulnerable moment: NOTE FROM THE CEO, TY WOODS When I started this community 6 months ago, I was just looking to create a space where REAL BUSINESS OWNERS and NONPROFIT FOUNDERS/EDs can come and actually learn ACCURATE INFORMATION on how to secure non-dilutive funding for their businesses whether it be grants, contracts, sponsorships, I wanted you to get the REAL answer from REAL PROs! I also wanted to learn about all of the businesses around the world that make this world move and somehow see how I could help connect you with other members who may be looking for what you do or have. Here's the thing, I can't stop spammers from coming in, but when we see you, YOU WILL BE REMOVED! This community is about GIVING more than taking. If you know some helpful info, verify it first, then post it (we will also verify). If something sounds a little "off" with someone's post, report it. When I host a class, SHOW UP! And when I am ready to do a meet up in Atlanta or other cities....SHOW UP! I know my fees are a bit pricey for some of you, but just keep grinding and you do what I tell you to do on the free stuff, and you will raise the funds trust me! If you are new, I would love to meet you on the next LIVE which will be on May 14, 2026 at 12pm EST the link will be in the calendar above. We want to see you GROW! I WANT TO SEE YOU PROSPER in everything you!

Grant Wednesday: 6 Fresh Opportunities for For-Profits & Nonprofits (May 2026) Hey Brick Builders!! It’s Grant Wednesday and we’re sliding into a brand-new month with fresh grant funding opportunities for nonprofits AND for profits. Yes, today is technically Wednesday, but we wanted to get these opportunities in your hands early so you have all of May to prepare and position yourself properly. Today we’re focusing on Brick 5 of the 7 Bricks Framework™: Multiple Streams of Revenue. If your business or nonprofit depends on only one source of income, whether that’s one donor, one contract, one event, or one client, you’re operating in survival mode. Strong organizations build multiple streams of revenue so they can withstand economic shifts, policy changes, and unexpected disruptions. Grants are one of the most powerful ways to strengthen your financial foundation without giving away equity or taking on high-interest debt. Let’s jump into 6 funding opportunities you should be looking at right now. FOR-PROFIT GRANT OPPORTUNITIES 1. Housing Affordability Breakthrough ChallengeFunding Amount: Up to $2 MillionDeadline: May 15, 2026 Enterprise Community Partners is seeking scalable solutions that can improve affordable housing across the country. This opportunity is ideal for founders working in construction technology, housing innovation, financing solutions, or resident support systems. Winning Strategy:Focus heavily on scalability. Funders want to know how your solution can create long-term impact beyond one city or one project.

Every Thursday, I️ host Grant Sprint LIVE where we use Ai to find grants to apply to. Last week, 7 people showed up out of over 400 people in this grant community! Why did you join this community if you are not going to implement what we teach? There are those who do and then there are those who watch what we do…which are you? I’m not surprised that the ones who are showing up are the ones in this community who are WINNING GRANTS and CONTRACTS! So here’s what I’m going to do. We are going to start purging this group. I want people in this group who are serious about GROWING their organizations and this group is NOT for spectators. Starting Monday, members of this group will be given 30 days to either take a class, comment, like a post and/or respond to my DM (sending out this week). If there is no activity in 30 days, you will be removed from this group. No questions asked. For the people remaining, by this time next year your business will be generating new income via grants, sponsorships, and/or contracts! Those who want to get involved with my 8-week Mastermind THIS IS THE LAST WEEK. The investment is $10k and we work with you until you secure funding. Must pre-qualify.
