Who Got The Money
Which funders gave money to organisations like yours, and for how much? Search real federal grants below — funder, recipient, amount, year — with a link to the official record for every grant.
Federal grants to nonprofits in all 50 states, rolling 24-month window (November 10, 2024 – November 10, 2026). Data through November 10, 2026, refreshed November 10, 2026 — freshness lag 0 days. Plus 100 foundations: $230,183,546,003.00 in grants paid. Foundation data: grants paid, latest complete year 2023 (2024 partial — included, each grant labelled by fiscal year).
Validation test, not a launch. Realistic base case $1-10M ARR; $100M+ only on a break not in the plan.

No email, no sign-up. The search runs entirely in your browser over the grants in this directory.
This directory: 700 grants from 68 federal funders, totalling $34,802,033,935.86, data through November 10, 2026. Plus 4 grants to nonprofits headquartered in Washington, DC — shown on their funder pages and in search; there is no DC hub because the directory covers the 50 states.
By recipient headquarters: 696 grants across the 50 states + 4 in Washington, DC = 700 grants in total.
The 68 funders in this directory are federal awarding sub-agencies; they sit under 23 top-level federal departments and agencies.
23 of 68 funders hit the 20-grant sampling cap — their totals are the sampled grants in this directory only, not the agency's full grantmaking. Funder totals are the sum of each funder's grants shown in this directory, not the agency's full budget.
The rolling window (November 10, 2024 – November 10, 2026) filters on obligation activity inside the window, not on the award's period. 'Year' is the fiscal year the award's period of performance ENDS, so it can fall outside the window: 23 grants end before FY2024, 331 end after FY2026, 346 end FY2024–FY2026.
Foundations — new
100 foundations, $230,183,546,003.00 in grants paid. The 2000 largest matched grants shown here total $22,397,840,422.00.
Foundation data: grants paid, latest complete year 2023 (2024 partial — included, each grant labelled by fiscal year). Foundation totals come from GetFunded's Open Foundation List (CC BY 4.0, built from IRS Form 990-PF filings); only grants whose recipient was matched to an organisation are named — unmatched grants are counted in the totals, not listed. The grants shown reach recipients in 43 of the 50 states, plus Washington, DC and Puerto Rico — Alaska, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, North Dakota, West Virginia, Wyoming have no grant among the largest shown (they may still receive smaller grants from these foundations, not shown here).
