A tip for grantseekers: If you know your desired grant would be in a specific field then you can start by searching that agency's or department's web site directly, i.e. for education grants search the Department of Education. To better develop your grant proposal, the department or agency's home page will help you to learn more about its programs and objectives. Some government departments or agencies even have web pages specially designed for specific types of grantseekers. Click here for a list of and links to all the federal departments and agencies.
