ASSISTANCE WITH GRANT DEADLINES

More and more organizations are relying on grant money from the government and foundations but many of you don’t have the funds to employ a grant writer and keep track of grant deadlines. Also, it can mean the loss of your funding if these grants are not managed properly. Below you will find some recent grant deadlines that are especially relevant to nonprofits. Stay tuned and follow us on social media for all upcoming grants!

ASPCA Northern Tier Shelter Initiative Grants
A message from Margaret Ring

As a service to nonprofits, I provide a short list of available grants with some limited information and their grant deadlines. If you don’t see anything that is of interest to your organization but need to fund a project, please contact me. If you need help writing a proposal or need assistance with policy manuals, I can also help with that. I’ve also reviewed grant proposals for nonprofits that were not accepted to show them how to get better scores for the next attempt. You can reach me at mring@1stchoiceadvisors.com or 888-441-5830.
