Testimonials

"Since we at Big Brothers Big Sisters began working with Procopio and Associates I am able to devote more time to my primary job duties instead of grant writing. Not only has Linda secured us more grant money in three years than the agency has ever done alone, I have the time to go out in the community and promote my program. I can only do this because I trust wholeheartedly that the staff at Procopio and Associates is working nonstop to find me the funds I need to maintain and grow my program."

"Procopio & Associates Fundraising provides 'above and beyond' grant writing services. It might well be some of the best dollars your nonprofit can invest to advance your mission."

"Our not-for-profit has been in existence for six years. While our team could handle programs, volunteer recruitment, and daily operations, we struggled with fundraising, especially in the area of foundations and grants. We appealed for volunteers from our church and other contacts to help us research and apply for grants but never had measurable success. When we heard about Procopio and Associates via a referral, we immediately set about to research the firm. For the first time we now approach the entire area of foundations and grants in a professional manner. The team has helped us research where to spend our efforts and areas to avoid 'spinning our wheels'. As a faith-based ministry that does excellent secular work, we are kind of a hybrid. Linda and her team have helped us to focus our efforts and approach this important fundraising source in cogent fashion."

"We kind of fell into Procopio and Associates after a disastrous year with another firm. What a blessing they have been to us! It is surprisingly easy to communicate with Linda, via email, and sometimes telephone. It has not been a hindrance at all to not have face-to-face meetings. In fact, I believe much more gets accomplished without such meetings! Linda and Stacey, in particular, have done great work for us. They are so professional, and always on top of deadlines. I don't know what we would do without them!"

"Linda Procopio is a guardian angel of the non-profit entities in the Susquehanna River Valley. She is the consumate professional, dedicated to her craft. At times, it would seem that we are her only client - she is constantly seeking out additional sources of income for the museum. She is respectful of my workload and yet, mindful (in a gently encouraging way) of impending deadlines. I truly do not know how she is able to juggle all the clients, grant applications, attachments, and summary reports expected from her clientele base. As we have worked over the past several years, we have become professional colleagues as well as friends and confidantes. I truly admire her professional abilities and am thrilled to have her 'on our side'."

"In the workshops that they give for the Pennsylvania Association of Nonprofit Organizations, Linda and Eric bring a down-to-earth approach to Grant Writing not often found. Their extensive background in this area allows them to deliver a wealth of valuable information to attendees. With their personable demeanors and their desire for participants to succeed, they take the time to answer questions, provide support and make participants feel comfortable... even after the workshop!"

"Linda and her team are a tremendous asset to our organization! Hope Within Community Health Center is a faith based, non profit, medical mission that provides free primary health care services to the medically uninsured financially needy residents of our community. As a charitable organization, our patients are in desperate need of services and are not a source of revenue. Linda has worked with Hope Within for the last several years to help us identify and apply for potential funding opportunities that would be a good match for our ministry. She delivers a high quality product in each and every grant applications she writes. She works diligently with us on each request to insure that our objectives and funding needs are clearly stated and our mission, vision, and program are clearly explained to donors unfamiliar with our center. Procopio & Associates Fundraising is well worth your financial investment! Linda will guarantee that those who choose to engage her firm are fully satisfied with the services and product delivered. Having Procopio & Associates partner with our organization has not only been profitable, it has allowed us to focus more of our time on what we do best - provide care for individuals who are in need of physical and spiritual hope."
