b'As you may or may not know acronyms are grants best-friends. \\n\\nIf you\\u2019ve heard the terms FOA, RFP, SAM, DUNS, or a number of other terms, then you are in the grant world. I once heard a grant writer speak an entire sentence using only acronyms. \\n\\nUgh! If you are overwhelmed already, don\\u2019t worry, I\\u2019m going to start breaking it down right now!\\n\\nLet\\u2019s first dissect the main different types of grants and contracts. There are federal grants, state contracts, and foundation grants. Think of those like your three main hubs. \\n\\nFederal grants are monies allocated from the federal government. \\n\\nState and local government contracts often receive much of their funding from the federal government as they can promote economic efficiency due to localized knowledge to implement a program more efficiently and effectively than the federal government (i.e., pass-through funding). \\n\\nA foundation grant is a monetary assistance provided to individuals and small businesses by companies, citizens, government, and non-government organizations. The money awarded as a grant is meant to meet particular needs and is not required to be repaid.\\n\\nWhich grants should your nonprofit go after? Well, the wide answer is all of them. \\n\\nListen to the full podcast to hear the full breakdown!\\n\\nFavor, please?\\nIf you love this podcast, would you please do me a favor and leave a review on iTunes or your podcast listener?\\n\\nThis helps others find the podcast and I read each and every review!\\n\\nIf you have any questions, feel free to email\\nholly@grantwritingandfunding.com \\n\\nI\\u2019d love to connect with you!\\n\\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWzIfwJt0az9KKwKz1Uc8vg \\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hollyrustick \\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/holly-rustick-0765b817/ \\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/grantwritingandfunding/ \\nPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/grantwritingandfunding/ \\n\\nThanks for listening!\\nHolly Rustick\\nExpert Grant Writer & Bestselling Author\\nhttps://www.grantwritingandfunding.com/'
