I hope the following is helpful to you in identifying possible sources of federal funding. Although the amount of money available from the federal government for grant and loan programs has decreased in recent years, there are still many excellent resources that will assist you in finding a program that might fit your needs. I have also provided business development and federal procurement resources for businesses interested in federal markets for their products or services.
