The Government has created a portal to help individuals who need benefits because of life events. Visit http://www.govbenefits.gov\n\nUse the drop down button\nDO YOU NEED BENEFITS BECAUSE OF A LIFE EVENT?\nChoose the life situation best applicable to you and then see if you qualify for the available government assistance.\n\nForget grant money - there's hardly any money for individuals. Go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) and Grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. But you'd be hard pressed to find any grant that would support individuals.

I recieved the very same offer. I was scammed this time last year by a company named First Costal Systems offering the same type of grant. They passed the account information out to others, if you decide to accept the offer. Be aware that there is a checking account required, they will tell you that. They may also require a fee for processing the grant application.

There are technology grants running around all over out there.  You should have someone at the central office who can help you research grants.  It takes work, and it would belong to the school, but it is one way.  You would have to show how the computer would benefit your students.  The other way to get a cheap one is ebay, but remember, you get what you pay for.

I think you would have to write a proposal letter to who ever you're requesting a grant from.

You may want to consider grants from private foundations.\n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online http://gtionline.fdncenter.org . It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) and their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices."

i actually work at a nonprofit that consults other nonprofit organizations on how to write grants. im a bit hesitant to provide you all the answer to your 6 questions because i dont know you and dont want to put all that information over Yahoo! answers. \n\nbut there are numerous reasons why nonprofit organizations get denied grants. they range from not following directions to a grant being extremely competitive. the one project i am workiong, i have consulted over 20 organizations that are part of a 50 nonprofit applicant pool. and of those 50 applicants, only 5-10 grants will be awarded.\n\nusually grants are written specifically for particular grants. a lot of the language can be used for other grants but my advice is always cater your grants based on the funder and their funding priorities. never, ever use boilerplate language over and over again on different grants.\n\nmy suggestion for new grant writers is to find a mentor and just do it. you cannot get an undergraduate degree in grantwriting and the best way to learn is to read books on grants writing, attend workshops and classes, find a mentor to help, get to know as many program officers as you can, and write and write and write.\n\ngood luck.

don't worry about past mistakes, there are grants for everyone. i've given this same advice to like 3 other people. the best place to start is at your local library or bookstore. look for an author named Ben Kaplan. he delivers the easiest to read system for finding scholarships and grants and the grants and scholarships in his book almost everyone qualifies for. plus he walks you through each step of applying and even has examples of winners' entries. here's a list of his books.

This is a question that I am asked over and over again. The short answer is:\n\nThere are very few grants available for starting or expanding a business unless the business involves research and development or high technology. Even then, the process is very competitive and involves preparing a detailed written proposal.\nWatch this link you will get the complete info.
