I have worked with Martina on several grants and tenders – both big and small.
She is one of the most talented individuals I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.
She understands grants like no other person I know having been on both sides of the table. She always has kind and considered feedback, her attention to detail is second to none and my success rate since working with her has been better than I could have imagined.
I sing Martina’s praises to anyone who will listen and could not recommend anyone more highly to be your next grant writer.

I found Martina to be: prompt, efficient, professional with a strong business acumen and she delivers what she promises.

We’ve been working on and off with Martina for over 3 years now, and she has always delivered great quality work on time. She’s quick to understand our business operations and projects, and contributes ideas that help strengthen our proposals. She clearly understands what RFPs are looking for, and she’s great at getting our ideas across in a succinct way.
I would definitely recommend Martina to anyone working in this space.

Monaro Media Group Pty Ltd engaged Martina Donkers to assist us in writing to funding applications. Our previous efforts for funding under the Innovation Grant program has been unsuccessful.
With Martina’s guidance, we were granted $226,036.96. She also assisted us in applying for funding under the PING program and again, we were successful. Not only was Martina a delight to work with, she really knew how to word applications for the best result.

I reached out to Martina at short notice to help on a grant proposal for my business and she was fantastic to work with. Not only was she a pleasure to deal with, but she provided a great strategic overview of how best to position the proposal and detailed exactly what I needed to cover to make be competitive and put our best foot forward.
I was so relieved to have the support of someone in the know to provide guidance on the grant process, and to have her expert wording input to help craft my responses so that they were impactful and covered off on all the required keywords and phrasing to meet eligibility.
I would absolutely recommend working with Martina and will hopefully do so myself when it comes to submitting future grants.

Your knowledge and ability to teach someone with such little understanding of the grant world is just outstanding, and I feel as though I now have somewhat of an idea what I am doing, so thank you so much!
