Finding a grant to apply for

Search a funder's open grant rounds by name, category or program, and open the one you want to apply for.

Last updated

A funder's portal lists every grant round it has open for applications. You don't need to sign in to look. The funder may use its own word for a grant round, a category or a program.

Search the open rounds

  1. Go to the funder's portal and open its list of open rounds.
  2. Search by name, category or what the round's page says, then select Search.
  3. Narrow the list under Filters by category or program, and choose Sort by Closing soon or Newest. Select Clear filters to see everything again.

Each round shows when it closes, such as Closes in 3 days, or Always open if it has no closing date.

Open a round

Select a round to open its Landing Page: what it funds, who can apply and when it closes. From there you apply; see Applying for a grant.

If nothing is open, the list says Nothing is open right now. Check back soon.
