Websites & Admin Systems for Your Foundation
Breakaway helps teams across Canada and the United States turn a scattered website, inbox, application form, spreadsheet, and shared drive setup into a clearer system for funding pages, grant pathways, grantee communication, board file access, and admin handoffs.
Built for small-to-mid foundations managing funding priorities, application pathways, reviewer access, grantee communication, reporting handoffs, board files, and public trust.
Built for Foundations With Real Grant Operations to Manage
This service is for foundations managing grant operations, not applicants looking for funding.
- Private, family, community, scholarship, and small corporate foundations
- Grantmakers managing funding pages, application forms, grantee communication, reporting handoffs, and board files
- Teams using shared inboxes, spreadsheets, Google Forms, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Submittable, Airtable, or similar tools without clean handoffs
- Foundations that are not ready for, or do not want, a full grant management software replacement
- Board-led or small-staff teams that need cleaner continuity when staff, reviewers, board members, or committee members change
- Individual grant seekers looking for funding
- Organizations looking for grant writing
- Organizations looking only for fundraising campaign support
- Teams looking for legal, tax, financial, charitable, governance, privacy, or compliance advice
- Large enterprise foundations looking for a full grant management software implementation
- Organizations looking for guaranteed application volume, funding, donor, or impact outcomes
Where Foundation Websites and Grant Workflows Break Down
The public website may explain the foundation at a high level, while the real grant process happens across inboxes, spreadsheets, forms, shared drives, and board folders. That gap creates applicant confusion, staff workload, messy review handoffs, and access risk.
Funding priorities, eligibility rules, application windows/cycles, or scholarship details are hard to find or outdated. And the application paths are often terrible on mobile phones.
Clear funding pages that explain who the foundation supports, what is eligible, when to apply, and what happens next.
General inquiries and real grant applications land in the same inbox, and applicants don't understand the difference between an inquiry and a real application.
Cleaner inquiry pathways, eligibility prompts, and form routing that help reduce unqualified applicant noise.
Application forms collect information, but the internal review handoff still depends on email threads, spreadsheets, or manual reminders.
More organized intake, reviewer notifications, committee handoffs, and structured grantee reporting around the tools already in use.
Board files, reviewer notes, grant folders, applicant documents, grantee reports, and committee materials live across personal drives or old folders.
Cleaner Microsoft 365, SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Workspace, or Drive structures with clearer permissions and folder logic.
Former staff, reviewers, board members, or committee members may still have access after their role changes.
Clearer access planning, offboarding support, role-based permissions, and less dependency on one administrator knowing everything.
Impact pages, annual transparency hubs, funded project updates, or public trust information exist but are hard to find or not useful.
Clearer public trust pathways that make existing information easier to find, understand, and maintain.

No Grant Software Lock-In. Clear Scope Boundaries.
Most agencies build the site. Most software fixes the grant process. Breakaway helps connect both.
We work around your existing tools
Breakaway is not a grant management software platform, foundation management software vendor, accounting provider, legal advisor, tax advisor, financial advisor, or compliance provider. We help improve the website, forms, communication workflows, files, permissions, and admin handoffs around the tools your foundation already uses.
Your foundation keeps responsibility for decisions and compliance
Breakaway helps organize websites, grant pathways, application forms, communication workflows, files, permissions, reporting handoffs, and backend admin systems. Your organization remains responsible for legal, financial, tax, charitable, governance, privacy, grantmaking, reporting, and compliance requirements.
Tools We Can Review or Work Around
Depending on your current setup and project scope, Breakaway can review and work around website, communication, grant intake, or admin tools like these:
