About this item

The only publication devoted exclusively to foundation funding opportunities for individual grantseekers, Foundation Grants to Individuals is an essential volume that no funding resource library or individual grantseeker should be without. The volume features over 3, 800 entries packed with the current information that individual grantseekers need most: addresses, contact names, financial data, application information, program descriptions, and more. Each section includes foundations that award millions of dollars each year to individuals: educational support (scholarships and student loans) ; general welfare; arts and cultural support; awards, prizes, and grants by nomination; international applicants; company employees (education and general welfare) ; students and graduates of specific schools; and a new section for research and professional support. Six indexes help users target prospective grants by subject area, types of support (such as scholarships, loans, or travel grants) , geographic area, sponsoring company (for employee restricted awards) , educational institution (for grants limited to specific schools) , and grantmaker name. A revised annotated bibliography refers grantseekers to additional resources on funding opportunities for individuals in many subject categories.
