Mark Carter

About

I work with everyone from not-for-profits to start-ups to write mountains of copy, develop policies, build relationships, and shape long-term strategies. I value strategic creativity, conscientious communication, collaboration, and interdisciplinarity.

I have extensive experience in copywriting and editing–in all genres, of all lengths, for all audiences. I can write content and prepare documents for publication (print and online) in your preferred editorial style.

I have written hundreds successful applications for grants from municipal, provincial, and federal government programs, foundations, and corporate granting programs. I will work with you to develop a project or operational funding strategy, coordinate with funding representatives, and write effective, persuasive copy for your grant applications.

I work with not-for-profits and individuals in all fields, but I specialize in project funding for arts and culture not-for-profits:

Festivals–film, music, theatre, comedy
Museums
Libraries
I have also written successful grants and developed funding strategies for community sports organizations and individual academic grants (SSHRC, OGS, and various discipline-specific programs).

Since August 2013, I have been working full-time as the Development Coordinator at THEMUSEUM, a unique, educational not-for-profit organization in the heart of downtown Kitchener.
