Eligibility & Getting Started

GOOGLE AD GRANTS MANAGEMENT FOR NONPROFITS
Eligible nonprofits can receive up to $10,000 a month in Google Search advertising through Google Ad Grants. But access to the program is only the beginning: campaigns need relevant keywords, useful landing pages, ongoing attention, and adherence to Google's requirements.
Higgens Media helps qualifying organizations plan, set up, and manage Google Ad Grants campaigns around the programs, services, and opportunities they want people to discover.
A large advertising allowance sounds promising, but it doesn't guarantee clicks, donations, volunteer sign-ups, or that the account will spend the full amount available. An effective campaign starts by identifying which searches are relevant to your organization and what people should find after clicking.
We'll look at your goals, your website, and your eligibility before recommending campaigns. That gives the advertising a clear purpose and helps set realistic expectations about the program.
We can help with the process before and after an account is approved. The scope of support depends on your organization's status and existing setup.
More impressions aren't particularly useful if they're coming from people who are unlikely to need your services or participate in your programs. We focus on meaningful search intent and the visitor experience after the click.
Because Higgens Media also works on websites and SEO, we can help identify problems with landing pages and content that may limit how well the advertising works. That broader view can be especially useful for nonprofits with small communications teams.

We can review relevant pages and help improve the content, structure, or functionality needed to support your campaigns.
