Simpler.Grants.gov is a work in progress. Thank you for your patience as we build this new website.

The goal

We want Grants.gov to be an extremely simple, accessible, and easy-to-use tool for posting, finding, sharing, and applying for federal financial assistance. Our mission is to increase access to grants and improve the grants experience for everyone.

For applicants

We’re improving the way you search for and discover funding opportunities, making it easier to find and apply.

For grantmakers

If you work for a federal grantmaking agency, we’re making it easier for your communities to find the funding they need.

The process

This project is transparent, iterative, and agile. All of the code we’re writing is open source and our roadmap is public. As we release new versions, you can try out functional software and give us feedback on what works and what can be improved to inform what happens next.

The research

We conducted extensive research in 2023 to gather insights from applicants, potential applicants, and grantmakers. We’re using these findings to guide our work. And your ongoing feedback will inform and inspire new features as we build a simpler Grants.gov together.
