Grant Information

Congressman Chaka Fattah welcomes your inquiry regarding grant information. With the growing amount of information now available on the Internet, this site serves to put grant seekers in touch with grant makers.

We are lucky to have so many grant resources available in Philadelphia. The web site of Delaware Valley Grant Makers, for example, represents 140 organizations representing corporations, private foundations, community foundations, donor-advised funds, charitable trusts and grant-making public charities located in southeastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey and Delaware. This should be the first stop as you seek grants.

Nationally, there are also many foundations that might be of assistance. The Council on Foundations and The Foundation Center may be particularly helpful.  For grants related to the arts, check out the website of the National Endowment for the Arts.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is proud to be the managing partner for Grants.gov, an initiative that is having an unparalleled impact on the grant community. Grants.gov allows organizations to electronically find and apply for more than $400 billion in federal grants.

The Federal Register informs citizens of their rights and obligations and provides access to a wide range of Federal benefits and opportunities for funding.

Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) provides a full listing of all Federal programs available to individuals and various entities including (state and local governments, domestic public, quasi- public, and private profit and nonprofit organizations and institutions).
