Please keep in mind that the more grant topics you select, the more paper will come to your fax machine, so choose your categories carefully. You will have a chance to update your survey about once a year. The information you receive through the Federal Grants Information Service and the fax blast notices is meant for the use of your organization only. As with any of our other written materials, you may not distribute it to a wider audience without our express permission. Please complete a Request for Collaborator List form.
Federal funding is different from foundation or corporate funding.
Federal grant programs are almost always based on Congressional mandates, so they have very specific funding priorities and restrictions. Some grants will fall into your areas of service, but won't necessarily be a good match for you. Some grants are targeted to states, cities, or local educational agencies. You'll receive this information because some federal funding is redistributed to the community via state or local agencies. A few state and city grants are included, but these are not the focus of this service.
