Every session in the Academy is led by Dr. Hopkins — a social worker, educator, and nonprofit consultant who has helped organizations secure over $1M in grant funding between 2023 and 2026.
She currently serves as the Board President of the South Carolina Chapter of the Grant Professionals Association, and brings the same strategy she uses with private retainer clients into the Academy — at a fraction of the cost.
