Find Matching Grants

Search 12,045 grants powered by the GrantWatch Full Grant Lifecycle Platform.

GrantWatch is more than a grant search platform. GrantWatch gives you three ways to search, each surfacing grants the others might miss, so using more than one expands the opportunities you find. Use Advanced Search Filters to narrow Human Verified Grants™ by eligibility, category, location, funding source, deadline, city, county, recipient type, and keyword. Use AI Grant Finder to search with keywords or exact phrases. Or use GrantWatch Intelligence™ to describe what you’re looking for in plain English and receive conversational results powered by GrantWatch’s proprietary Human Verified Grants™ data. Every search method draws from the same verified grant database, reviewed by the GrantWatch team to help ensure listings are active, accurate, and not auto-scraped.

Search across 61 grant categories and 5 recipient types, including Individuals, Nonprofits, Small Businesses, Government, and Colleges & Universities, and filter by city, county, state, province, or country. Hide grants you’ve already reviewed with the eye icon to keep your results focused on what’s new. Research grants, grantmakers, recipients, and organizations across the funding ecosystem, with funding and organization information compiled from IRS Form 990, SAM.gov, Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), Corporations Canada, and official GrantWatch Claimed Profiles submitted directly by organizations, displayed with Visibility Tier™ badges.
