How to write a letter of interest for a grant
Know your audience.
Learn everything you can about the foundation making the grant. Find out what types of philanthropy the foundation has engaged in before, and learn about the foundation's history and its milestones so you can think of the ways your vision is consistent with theirs.

Possible answers: *Get a copy of the grant form for your courthouse, and do some research on the foundations that you can see and understand before writing your letter. You can also call your courthouse to ask questions. *It's not always easy to learn much about a non-local foundation, so try some unconventional tactics, like reading their press releases and searching their form 990 filings (tax forms). You can look for 990s at http: // 990finder. *Once you've discovered the foundation's strategy and audience, take some time to work out what aspects your project supports so you can structure your letter in that way. For example, your project supports a wide array of initiatives, such as fundraising, volunteer organizations and airline miles. *When running your writing, don't mention this in the letter, just indicate that you're interested in conducting research for the grant. You can look it up online if you know any specific research your undergraduate studies might entail.
