Every single year, the Federal Government hands out over 160 billion dollars in Government funded grants. They give them out to both individuals and businesses to boost business growth and opportunity and to assist individuals in raising funds for their educational or other personal goals.

However the high amount of grant programs available to people, they still find it difficult to find grants to apply for. The grant system can be cumbersome and overwhelming to some. There is now a website dedicated to helping you understand the application process in securing government funded grants, it is called www.grants.gov. You are able to search their website in a variety of ways to locate the grants that are right for you or your business. You can search the website by category, agency or overall grant available to people and businesses. The site can still be difficult to maneuver, but if you pay attention, you will find a lot of government funded grants.

Be aware that grants.gov is not a complete listing of the grant programs that are out there for businesses and individuals. There are two other government websites that list government funded grants:
www.cfda.gov, The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance
www.firstgov.com, First Gov Grants

You can also do a Google or Yahoo keyword search for ‘government funded grants’ or ‘grants for single mothers.” Do your searches within quotations for the best results available day to day.

You can also sign up with an agency that maintains private government grant opportunities. Although it costs money, it may be worth it for you to have all of the available government funded grants in one place, saving you a lot of time.
After you locate the grants that you want to apply for, it is recommended to contact the organization funding the grant and verify the specifics of the grant and their application process. You never want to apply for a grant based on out of date information.
