On The Road With GrantWatch

Juneau Pregnancy Resource Center

Tiffany Bean

Client Services Director

A conversation between Tiffany Bean, the client services director at Juneau Pregnancy Resource Center, and Libby Hikind, the founder and CEO of GrantWatch.com

Hi, here we are at Juneau pregnancy center in Juneau, Alaska. And we're going to go inside and see how they've been using GrantWatch to find grants.

Q: What programs does your nonprofit provide?

A: We have an actual earn while you learn program. So, we have lots of classes that the clients get to take. They range from pregnancy to delivery. We have got parenting classes and co parenting classes, life skills classes, how to get a job, how to manage your money. We have diapers and wipes that are in the storage area. And then upstairs, we have furniture like cribs, Pack 'n Plays, highchairs, and things like that. And we have formula, a mommy room with maternity clothes.
We have a lot of clients that will come back and drop stuff off that is still, you know, usable. And then, they get credit for dropping donations off, and they can use that credit again to get the things that they need.

Q: What role do grants play in your organization?

A: I started to write grants, and I was not very good at it. And now we have a gal who (writing grants) is her thing. So, she writes grants for us. The thing about GrantWatch that is very important is that we only show currently available grants. So, you are not going to go through that rabbit hole of searching all through Google and then find out well they finished last week, and we missed that so let's wait till next year. So, whatever you are finding is fresh content. And that is probably why your grant writer is subscribing to GrantWatch, I presume?

Q: Besides grants, how do you find funding?

A: We have businesses in Juneau like Bobcat of Juneau. They are a big part of our monetary donations. Churches donate on a monthly basis. And then, there are just people that have a heart for a crisis pregnancy center, and they give monetary donations.
