SchoolGrants Site Map

Those who make use of the information they find on the SchoolGrants site are encouraged to give back by sharing their own knowledge, successful grants, tips, opportunities, etc. It is only through such open sharing that the Nation's schools can become better places for students as we assist one another in the pursuit of the funding necessary to implement necessary programs.

Thank you in advance for not being a taker only and for caring enough to share your own unique knowledge with your colleagues.

Here you will find additions that have been made to the site. After you've been to SchoolGrants several times, I recommend that you start at this page to see if new content has been added since your last visit.

The primary Grant Opportunities page provides a description of the various opportunities we provide. The other pages break down the opportunities by state, deadline, or type of grantor.

Federal Opportunities tend to be large grants more suited to district-wide applications. All federal opportunities will have deadlines.

State Opportunities are those opportunities that we are aware of that are being offered by your state agencies (primarily through the state's department of education).  If you know of opportunities for your state that we have not posted, please let us know so we can share them with your colleagues.

Foundation Opportunities may be large or small offerings. Some foundations require submission of applications by certain dates; others have no deadlines. Some foundations provide funds only to nonprofits within their operating communities while others offer opportunities across the country. (Additional opportunities that are not included on these pages are available only to subscribers of the SchoolGrants Biweekly Newsletter or purchasers of the Let's Write a Grant CD.) 

Find Your State is the page you'll need to visit to see how we have split the states to provide pertinent foundation opportunities. 

These grant writing tips have been learned over the years and shared by experienced grant writers. There are also links to some especially relevant grant-writing resources.

Grants are not always the best way to raise funds for your school. Grant-seeking is a time-consuming and competitive process! SchoolGrants includes Fund-Raising Opportunities that can be used in lieu of grant-seeking or in conjunction with it!

I would love to include fund raising techniques that have been especially successful at your school if you share them with me!

I read a number of publications every day and often come across items of interest to educators that may or may not be specifically related to grants. I provide a brief recap of what I find, along with appropriate links for more information, if available.
