NSGP GRANT WRITING & CONSULTING
Your Nonprofit Could Be Eligible For Up To $1.1 Million In Security Grant Funding
We help houses of worship, religious schools, and other nonprofits win federal and state security grants. You focus on your mission. We handle the application.
THE PROBLEM
The Funding Exists. The Application Is The Barrier.
The federal Nonprofit Security Grant Program provides up to $600,000 per organization for security upgrades. Many states offer additional programs worth up to $500,000 more. But the applications require detailed written narratives, documented threat evidence, vulnerability assessments, and strict compliance with grant scoring criteria. Most nonprofits don’t have the time or expertise to compete.


WHAT WE DO
We Handle the Hard Parts
So You Can Focus On your Mission
Our process is built on deep knowledge of how these programs work. We know exactly what information and documents to collect from your organization, so your time commitment is measured in hours, not weeks.

Grant Application Writing
We write your entire grant application, tailored to the scoring criteria that federal and state reviewers use. We guide you through a streamlined intake designed to collect exactly what’s needed with minimal effort on your end.

Vulnerability Assessment Guidance
We help you complete or strengthen the facility security assessment that forms the foundation of your grant application.

They turned a complicated federal application into a clear, manageable process, and their guidance helped us submit a strong application.

I had the pleasure of working with Simon Dinitis and his team on behalf of Holy Family Catholic School in Grand Junction, Colorado, to apply for a federal security grant. Thanks to their expertise and guidance, we were successful in securing nearly $200,000 in funding to improve the safety and security of our school. Simon and his team were outstanding throughout the entire process. They made what could have been a complicated and overwhelming federal grant application feel manageable and straightforward. Simon was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly helpful every step of the way. We are so grateful for his work and the positive impact this funding will have on our school community. I highly recommend Simon to any school, church, or nonprofit seeking assistance with federal grant funding. Jennie AubertPosted on Google![]()

I cannot recommend Security Grant Advisors highly enough! As the pastor of a mid-sized church in Colorado, I had never applied for a grant before, and the entire process initially seemed overwhelming. Thankfully, we had Simon and the incredible team at Security Grant Advisors guiding us every step of the way. Thanks to their expertise and hard work, our church was awarded a $200,000 Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) grant in an exceptionally competitive year! From beginning to end, Simon and his team were professional, knowledgeable, organized, and incredibly helpful. They made a complicated process manageable, communicated clearly, responded promptly to every question, and ensured we had everything we needed to submit the strongest application possible. I am convinced that we would not have received this grant without their guidance and expertise. Their work will make a lasting difference in our church’s ability to provide a safe and secure environment for our congregation and community. A huge thank you to Simon and the entire SGA team! If you’re considering applying for a security grant, I wholeheartedly recommend Security Grant Advisors. They are absolutely worth it!Posted on Google![]()

Working with Security Grant Advisors has been an outstanding experience. As the Director of Operations & Facilities for a nonprofit organization in New York City, I've had the opportunity to work with a variety of consultants over the years. Simon and his team have consistently demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and a deep understanding of both state and federal grants. They guided us through each stage of the application process with clarity and attention to detail, helping us navigate what can often be a complex and demanding process. Their support gave us confidence that our applications reflected our organization's needs and priorities. I especially appreciated their collaborative approach. They were organized, responsive, and always willing to answer questions or provide thoughtful guidance along the way. At every stage, it felt like we were working with a trusted partner rather than simply a consultant. If your house of worship, school, or nonprofit is considering applying for security grants, I would confidently recommend Security Grant Advisors. They bring knowledge, integrity, and a genuine commitment to helping organizations put forward the strongest application possible. Thank you, Simon and the entire Security Grant Advisors team, for your partnership and dedication. It has truly been a pleasure working with you.

WHY SGA
Not General Grant Writers. Security Grant Specialists.
Most grant consultants in this space are generalists who happen to do security grant applications. We do nothing else. Our founder spent 15+ years in federal law enforcement before building a practice exclusively focused on nonprofit security grants. We understand how applications are scored, we know what makes a threat case credible, and we’ve worked with houses of worship, religious schools, and other nonprofits across the country. Leading a church? See our guide to security grants for churches.
