What counts as a nonprofit grant?

A nonprofit grant is a funding award made to a nonprofit or 501(c)(3) organization by a foundation, a corporation, or a government body, for a stated programme or operating purpose rather than as a loan. Roughly 70% of our directory comprises of grants from private foundations, public foundations, corporations and charities. The remaining 30% of grants found are from local, state, and federal government funding sources.

That split matters to a nonprofit applicant because the federal share is the part already published free on Grants.gov. The rest, the community foundations, the corporate giving programmes, the county and municipal departments, is scattered across thousands of separate sites with no common deadline calendar. Aggregating it is what the subscription pays for, and the exact closing date and the date of the last check appear on every record here so you can plan around them.

Questions about nonprofit grants

Does GrantWatch award these grants?

GrantWatch is a grant listing directory - we are not the funding source. Therefore, we do not approve applications, award grants, or give money.

Where are the grants from?

Our research team verifies and adds new grants to the website five days a week. Roughly 70% of our directory comprises of grants from private foundations, public foundations, corporations and charities. The remaining 30% of grants found are from local, state, and federal government funding sources.

Why does GrantWatch charge a fee?

We provide a service, saving you endless hours of research, time, and stress! You can search for grants on your own for free, but many organizations prefer to pay for the convenience of having them all in one place! We specialize in listing grants from foundations that aren't publicly available.

Geographic pages are cross-linked from here once they pass their tier of the proof gate. None are promoted before that.

Grants themselves are free to apply for via official government portals; GrantWatch charges solely for search database features.

GrantWatch listings are compiled from public records, including IRS Form 990 filings, funder postings and government announcements. GrantWatch does not issue grants and does not make funding determinations. Eligibility rules, award amounts and deadlines are set independently by each funder and are subject to change.

Listings are provided AS IS. GrantWatch does not warrant that any listing is accurate or complete. You are responsible for verifying grant deadlines and eligibility requirements directly with the funder before you apply. Read the full terms.
