What People Are Saying

"Joanna from Hilo Consulting is amazing!  She found and secured the perfect grant from The Pollination Project to develop my social enterprise, Edén.  Joanna writes in a way that is friendly, yet compelling; she translated the soul of our project into written form. She wrote our grant proposal in an exciting, inspiring, and authoritative manner while keeping the content informative and succinct. Joanna was extremely professional and communicative with me throughout the grant process. She works quickly, reliably, and efficiently. She was an amazing asset to our project! I cannot thank her enough for her work and impact. I fully recommend Hilo Consulting."
