What is a Grant?

Grants are non-repayable funds disbursed by one party to a recipient. In order to receive a grant, some form of "Grant Writing," often referred to as either a proposal or an application, is usually required.

Most grants are made to fund a specific project and require some level of compliance and reporting. The grant writing process involves an applicant submitting a proposal (or submission) to a potential funder, either on the applicant's own initiative or in response to a Request for Proposal from the funder.
