Your grade level doesn't have anything to do with a grant. If you are looking for individual grants you will have to research financial assistance for education and training. Go to the office in your state that handles public assistance or TANF, and they may also give you guidance.

Just a point of clarification: the Form CO1 and Form CO 2 are one-time only forms for registration. The AG-990 is filed annually, at the same time the Form 990 is filed.

I happened upon your video by chance at am so very glad that I have! An older, female, African-American Veteran reached out to me for help with obtaining a grant for her (idea and wish) vision of housing homeless veterans (in Chicago). I advised that I am not a grant writer, though I’d like to help her learn to “fish for herself”. I would love to ask you to do a small workshop for a group of similar women here in Chicago. You would be a true blessing to those of us trying to help others, and myself, as we work to empower our community. Thank you for what you do!

I like having separate boxes for data outcomes and data impacts on families, busineses, landscapes, communities. And then linking with social or economic Indicators and productivity Indicators. Including university commmunilty research partnership software linked with design and evaluation of community outcomes, impacts and productivity Indicators. Looking towards monthly Quality of Life or Social Productivity Indicators nationwide.
