About Sketgo.
When Sauve first embarked on her music career, she was struck by how costly it was to successfully launch and manage a music career. Finding herself in a similar situation to many other emerging artists across Canada, she was faced with the daunting process of writing her first grant. Nine years on, Sauve has helped numerous artists, not-for-profits and small businesses like you secure over $4 million in government grant funding.
With an incredible 80% success rate, Sauve has created a name for herself in the Canadian music industry, not-for-profit industry and small business communities for her knowledge of federal, provincial and municipal grants. Behind Sauve's work is a strong desire to help close the disparity gap in access to grant funding for emerging artists, grassroots not-for-profit organizations, and small businesses alike.
In 2021, Sauve officially launched her grant consulting business, Sketgo. Together, our mission is to help connect Canadian artists, not-for-profits and start-ups just like you to the world through education and empowerment and securing the resources to make your goals achievable.
