Welcome

With the holidays just around the corner, it is important to show our gratitude to those who keep our country safe. The American Red Cross and U.S. Armed Forces have teamed up for the “Holiday Mail for Heroes” program to deliver holiday greetings from the United States to troops serving abroad. I encourage South Jersey residents to send warm greetings to servicemen and women who will be unable to be home for the upcoming holiday season.

Grant Information

Federal Funding Sources

The federal government annually distributes millions of dollars in grants to local and state governments; academic institutions; non-profit organizations; small businesses and other select applicants. Awarded through the differing departments of the federal government, each federal agency has specific criteria that any applicant must meet in order to qualify and be considered for grant approval. A comprehensive list of federal grant programs and the guidelines for submitting an application can be found at the Grants page of my website.

 

Private Funding Sources

In addition to federal sources, financial assistance is available through many private institutions and non-profit organizations. Accordingly, each benefactor has specific guidelines that must be met to be considered for an award. A valuable, comprehensive database which includes the application procedures and contact information for grants offered by such private and non-profit organizations is maintained by non-profit The Foundation Center.

In addition to using the internet, South Jersey residents can access The Foundation Center's database at two local sites. Through "Cooperating Collection" agreements with both the Cumberland County College and the United Way of Atlantic County, the online database is available at the locations below for review, free of charge, by the public:
