GrantBook is a social purpose business specializing in the procurement and implementation of cloud-based tools that help grantmakers and their networks to maintain a more social and technology-enabled workplace. GrantBook offers expertise and proactive support as its clients take the important steps to transition some or all of their operations to the cloud. The team curates lightweight and continuously updated technology solutions to advance collaboration, grants management, and knowledge-sharing. Because GrantBook has social-enterprise and philanthropic sector knowledge and works exclusively with tools that are deployed in this sector, they are able to optimize grantmaking and fundraising processes through time-saving solutions that help direct greater resources with fewer pains to the social sector.
