Looking to fund a project in your community?
Funding opportunities help civic groups, municipalities and nonprofit organizations plan and implement community initiatives. Depending on your specific plans and project, you could qualify for:
Technical assistance for online marketing efforts, for example
Capital infrastructure investments, for new buildings or renovations
Foundation grants
State agency funding
To help you find and navigate the wide array of grants available, we've compiled and categorized a comprehensive list of funding sources.
Our full grant directory provides information on the funding focus, grant awards, eligibility requirements, program descriptions, and application deadlines. If you have questions about a specific program, just contact the grant program administrators.
Sometimes, a program will offer grant writing workshops or webinars prior to the grant deadline to assist applicants in refining their scope of work and drafting a strong proposal.
Take advantage of these opportunities to give yourself the best chance at receiving the funding. Visit the program's webpage or contact the program directors to find out if such opportunities are available.
