CoProPlus
MAC’s CoProPlus subsidiary does have a pre-negotiated grant writing contract available.
CoPro+ is a purchasing consortium program sponsored by the Michigan Association of Counties (MAC) and powered by Procurement Consulting Group. The program was intentionally designed to make procurement easier for a variety of public organizations. Essentially, CoPro+ serves as a bridge between public agencies (like schools and local governments) and vetted, trustworthy contractors who are waiting to fulfill procurement requests. Our program supports Michigan companies, provides resources for public agencies, creates real cost and time savings, and, above all else, makes procurement a breeze.

MI Funding Hub
Help with the perennial challenge of finding and securing grants for county initiatives is here.
The MI Funding Hub is a new effort led by the Michigan Municipal League and state Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity to develop one-stop shop for grants. The hub provides open access to a searchable database of federal and state funding sources as well as philanthropic foundations that can be queried based on type of applicant and funding category as funding becomes available.
The hub provides a monthly newsletter announcing new grants, webinars and grant readiness training.
Local officials also have free access to hands-on technical assistance from a team of experts across many fields through the MI Funding Hub helpdesk. After receiving your helpdesk request form, the team will schedule a meeting to discuss funding needs, answer funding questions, direct applicants to appropriate funding sources and coach you on developing application strategies.
Get started by watching a recorded introductory webinar.
