Let Me Introduce Myself...

I'm  Kara O’Connor, Founder of KOconsulting, LLC—your trusted partner in securing the grant funding you need to grow your business or nonprofit.

With over a decade of experience as a news reporter, grants manager, and nonprofit leader, I’ve helped organizations secure over $10 million in funding and successfully submitted more than 400 winning grant applications.

But more importantly? I help my clients tell their stories in a way that funders can’t ignore. My background in journalism gives me a unique ability to craft compelling narratives that make your mission stand out—whether you’re seeking $25K or $500K+ in funding.

As your exclusive grant consultant, I’ll guide you through every step of the process with strategy, clarity, and confidence. Together, we’ll bring your funding vision—and your million-dollar ideas—to life.

You have a vision. I’ll help you fund it.
