All applications are accessed and submitted via WebGrants. Full instructions for navigation and use of online grants system are provided within WebGrants, and can also be found in this Quick User Guide.
Free registration is required to use WebGrants. Registration is fast, simple, and does not obligate you to complete an application. Your information will not be used for any other purposes or shared with anyone else. If you submit grant applications on behalf of an organization or other entity, the account you create should represent the organization, not you personally (you will be considered the primary contact for organization). If you submit applications on behalf of several organizations, you will need to create an account for each organization you represent.
