From Boardrooms to Budget Narratives, I Bridge the Gap Between Vision and Funding

Hi, I’m Chermain 

Strategist, speaker, and founder of Clarity To Capital™.

I don’t teach people how to chase grants. I teach them how to get ready for them.

I’m Chermain Jennings, the woman behind the framework that helps nonprofits transition from chaos to clarity, enabling them to stop scrambling and start attracting aligned, meaningful funding.

For nearly 15 years, I have worked across fundraising, proposal management, and nonprofit development. What I often see are organizations with powerful missions but chaotic backends. Great storytelling but no structure. Brilliant founders who can’t secure dollars, not because they aren’t worthy, but because they aren’t fundable OR founders securing dollars but no strategy or direction for said funding.

So, I built the Clarity To Capital™ Framework to fill that gap.

Today, I lead nonprofit teams, consultants, and funders through the work that needs to happen before proposals: strategic alignment, internal clarity, and systems that build trust with funders.

Through the Grant Accelerator, capacity-building tools, and licensing support, I help changemakers do the work that makes the "yes" easier.

Because you don’t need to write more. You need to align.

But my work isn’t just technical. It’s rooted in a core value: clarity precedes capital. Whether I’m writing a book, designing a workbook, or delivering a keynote, I’m always translating big visions into fundable action.

If you’re a nonprofit leader looking for traction...
A funder looking for real impact...
Or a team ready to align your mission with your message...

You're in the right place.

Let’s close the gap between good work and great funding, together.
