Discover More Grants, Create More Impact!
The Grants Management Office has identified a powerful new tool that automates the discovery and identification of federal grant opportunities for our stakeholders. The US Digital Response’s Federal Grant Finder is a free software that enables organizations to optimize federal funding opportunities through advanced search and collaboration tools to help organizations like yours uncover and pursue more opportunities than ever before.
By automating the grant discovery process, we’re breaking down barriers and creating new opportunities for collaboration among the diverse stakeholder groups – including state and local governments, nonprofits, and more.
Together, we can maximize the federal grant dollars flowing into New Jersey, driving meaningful change across our communities.
