How do I find grants for my nonprofit?

Start with the search bar at the top of this page to find grants by keyword, topic, or funder name. Filter by grant type — foundation, federal, or state — to narrow results. For nonprofit-specific matching beyond keyword search, Grantable also offers an AI-powered funder search that ranks funders against your mission and their 990 giving history.

What's the best grant search engine?

There are three main options: free government databases like Grants.gov (federal only), paid tools like Instrumentl and Candid ($180–$500/month, foundation data), and Grantable (free search across all grant types, optional AI matching). Grantable covers foundation, federal, and state grants in one searchable database.

How often is the grants database updated?

Daily. Foundation grants are refreshed from the latest IRS Form 990 filings as they are published, federal grants sync from Grants.gov and federal agency feeds, and state programs are monitored continuously.

Can I search for foundation grants specifically?

Yes. Use the "Foundation" pill under the search bar to filter to foundation grants only. You can combine that filter with a keyword search, or click any funder name in a result to see every grant that foundation currently offers.

Do I need an account to search for grants?

No. Every grant listing, funder profile, and search filter is free and public. You only need a Grantable account if you want to save grants, use the AI matching tools, or write proposals inside Grantable.
