For US 501(c)(3) Executive Directors and founders

Find the grants your nonprofit actually qualifies for.

Most small nonprofits lose weeks writing applications to funders they were never eligible for. The free Grant Fit Snapshot shows you which funders are worth your time, and which to skip, before you write a word.

The application was never the problem. The fit was.

You already know the feeling. You find a grant that looks right, spend two weeks on the application, and hear nothing back. No feedback, no reason, just silence.

Usually the answer was decided before you started: wrong geography, wrong funder, wrong stage. Finding that out first is the whole point of the Snapshot.

A practical Snapshot built for your organization

This is the free preview of the method. It shows you the approach on your own organization, with no obligation.

Four factors. An opportunity has to pass all four.

Mission Alignment

Does the funder's actual giving history match your programs, not just their stated guidelines?

Geographic Eligibility

Does the money actually reach the area you serve?

Funding Stage

Does the funder support organizations at your size and stage, rather than only large institutions?

Award Compatibility

Is the realistic award size worth the effort it takes to apply?

The most useful part is often the "do not pursue" call: the funder that looks right on the surface but isn't, and the specific reason why. A database gives you a list. This tells you where not to waste your time.

Real sources, applied with judgment

The assessment draws on public IRS Form 990 data through ProPublica, plus current funder research, read against your organization's profile. Not a search-result dump. Where a deadline or eligibility detail can't be verified, the Snapshot says so plainly rather than guessing.
