(Silver City, NM) – The Gila Community Foundation has recently renewed a subscription to the premier grant searching database GrantStation, available at the Silver City Public Library to everyone seeking grants. Gila Community Foundation has offered this resource to area grant-seekers since 2023. There will be an informal workshop to learn how to use GrantStation at the library on Monday, May 18, 10:00-11:00am.
As described on their website grantstation.com, GrantStation offers organizations and agencies the opportunity to identify potential funding sources for their programs or projects as well as resources to mentor these organizations through the grantseeking process. The database serves all grantseekers: nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, government agencies, religious organizations, and independent grant professionals. GrantStation databases include private foundations, corporate foundations, community foundations, and corporate contribution programs. A number of faith-based funders, association grant programs, and other grant programs are also included in the databases. In the United States, federal and state grants are also included. The databases provide the ability to search for grantmakers giving in a geographic area and areas of interest. Each grantmaker has a funder profile page to help the grantseeker decide if they should reach out to that grantmaker.
