Grants and Funding Information of Interest to Montana Non-Profit Organizations

Montana covers a lot of beautiful ground and, fortunately, there are five libraries that serve the region as Cooperating Collections through the Foundation Center. These are perfect places to begin the search for the grants your organization needs.

Cooperating Collections are free funding information centers in libraries, community foundations, and other nonprofit resource centers that provide a core collection of Foundation Center publications and a variety of supplementary materials and services in areas useful to grantseekers.

A key initiative of the Foundation Center is to reach under-resourced and underserved populations throughout the United States and in other locations around the globe, who are in need of useful information and training to become successful grantseekers. One of the ways we accomplish this goal is by designating new Cooperating Collection libraries in regions that have the ability to serve the nonprofit communities most in need of Foundation Center resources.
