The challenge
As a lean early-stage nonprofit, Multiple faced the classic startup problem: a big vision with limited bandwidth. The team had strong storytelling and founder relationships, but needed structured systems to scale their funding pipeline.
They had experimented with writing grants in-house, but it was slow, inconsistent, and often deprioritized in favor of more urgent day-to-day operations.
Multiple needed a partner who could act like an extension of their team. They wanted a system to consistently source and apply to aligned funders without draining internal resources.
Why Boon
Multiple chose Boon for its blend of high-touch strategy and AI-powered efficiency. The appeal was not just more grant writers. It was a structured delivery engine that combined expert vetting, intelligent automation, and a consistent workflow.
The team was particularly drawn to Boon’s ability to build a personalized funder network of mission-aligned prospects who had a history of supporting autism, tech innovation, or adjacent health equity causes.
The solution
Over the course of 8 months, Boon created and managed Multiple’s full funding strategy. This included:
Building a personalized funder list of 500+ aligned prospects
Managing a shared grant calendar with priorities, deadlines, and strategies
Drafting, refining, and submitting multiple grant proposals
Supporting funder introductions and follow-up communication
Multiple’s internal team spent minimal time managing the process. Most weeks involved light reviews and strategic input, freeing up their bandwidth for founder support and ecosystem development.
The results
$110,000 raised in under 8 months
Grants secured from the eBay Foundation and Truist Foundation
Significant time savings across the executive team
Dozens of funder introductions and prospect conversations initiated
A scalable funding strategy that matched the organization's ambition
“Working with Boon allowed us to punch above our weight. We were able to raise six figures while staying focused on our mission and founders."
