Our Mission

Hometown Grants Corporate Mission and Values

Corporate Mission
We strengthen rural communities—one grant at a time.
Hometown Grants serves rural clients and the organizations that support them, helping them attain funding to build more sustainable futures. We empower communities through education, strategic project planning, competitive grant writing, and expert post-award management. By advocating for increased rural grant capacity and connecting communities with funding opportunities, we help the rural way of life not just survive—but thrive.

​

Corporate Vision
We envision thriving rural communities transformed by the funding we help secure.
Infrastructure investments lay the groundwork for small-town resilience and long-term growth. We guide our clients in designing fundable projects and developing the skills needed to pursue and manage grant funding successfully.
At Hometown Grants, we also cultivate a joyful, flexible, and purpose-driven workplace. Our team members are supported in finding and growing their “zone of genius”—where their talents shine and their work has meaning.

Corporate Values
 

Prioritize the Client

We work in the best interest of the client - always.
By putting our clients in the driver’s seat and providing expert guidance toward their goals, we move forward together—toward shared success. 

Successful clients make our business thrive.

Create Outstanding Work
We provide the best quality work every time. 

‘Good enough’ is not good enough-give that extra effort.
Our best thinking, our best effort, is invested into each assignment.
The best idea is always more important than ego.

Work with Integrity
We strive to do the right thing for our clients, company, and coworkers, every day.
We admit mistakes freely and welcome the learnings.
We deliver hard messages straight up, with empathy.

Swing Big
We don’t shy away from hard projects.
Is it scary? Face it squarely, and bring it on.
Big swings get home runs or lots of learnings- win-win.

Always Be Curious
Ask questions, then ask more questions.
Seek learning; want to know why and how.
Digging deeper, more learning, yields better results and successful clients.

Approach Work with Optimism and Joy
We approach our work and our clients with a sense of optimism and joy. Transformative work is done with a positive outlook.
Successful Hometown Grants clients and employees will inspire optimism and joy. In turn, Hometown Grants thrives.
