  Foundation Grants   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The Foundation Center also publishes funding directories specific to certain fields, such as: aging; arts and culture; children, youth, and families; health; higher education; international programs; libraries and information services; religion; women and girls; and elementary and secondary education.
It is a good idea to look for foundations close to home; they are more likely to have a greater interest in local problems than would larger foundations with a national focus.
Grantseekers will need to find out whether their projected proposals match the foundation's areas of interest and geographic guidelines, whether the proposal is within the foundation's budgetary constraints, and whether the foundation normally funds the type of project being considered.
