What is Lettera?

Lyndsay Crespo, Principal

Inspired by the Olivetti company's timeless typewriter, Lettera is a consulting firm that provides grant writing services to the public sector.

After more than ten years working in the community development field, I founded Lettera Consulting. I am a writer, designer, and leader of community-based initiatives.

I studied urban planning in college; since then, my work has addressed needs for education and social services, as well as community and economic development, across Mexico and the U.S.

I’ve raised over $140 million in public and private funding to implement cross-sector initiatives in diverse communities with varied needs. I enjoy empowering local organizations through high-quality grants and strategic advising.
