It’s a beautiful thing to serve, to build, to lead, to show up for your community. But the greatest impact we’ll ever have begins at home. Changing the world starts in our own living rooms, in the way we love, show up, and stay present for our families. Stay connected to what matters most. 🤍

“I founded Ink & Impact to simplify the grant process and champion nonprofits doing vital work. My approach is relational, detail-oriented, and always centered on your mission—because funding isn’t just about dollars; it’s about sustaining the services our communities depend on.

On a personal level, I’m a Southern California transplant, originally from the Chicagoland area. Though the West Coast is now home, I’ll always carry a special fondness for the Midwest. When I’m not developing and writing grant proposals, I enjoy reading, exploring all that California has to offer, and spending time with my high school sweetheart, Corry, and our three lively children. Fun fact: all three are redheads—even though neither of us are!”

“I’m Lauren Wiens. With over 15 years in the nonprofit sector, I specialize in helping mission-driven organizations secure sustainable funding through strategic grant development. My background includes nine years of growing successful grant programs and over five years in nonprofit leadership, focused on donor engagement and private revenue growth.

I began my career working directly with families in a transitional housing program. Later, I stepped into leadership and discovered a passion for grant seeking and foundation relations. Since then, I’ve led teams, built systems, and helped raise millions to support communities across the U.S.”

Such a powerful and eye-opening training hosted by Pastor Dan Broyles from Valencia Hills Community Church at on understanding human trafficking. 🙏

Hearing the statistics, stories, and practical education was staggering.

If you’re looking to bring this kind of awareness and training to your workplace, nonprofit, or community group, I highly recommend it. Education is the first step in prevention, and awareness truly saves lives. 💛
