How to find New Hampshire grants that fit

  1. Start local. Community foundations and New Hampshire agencies usually have fewer applicants than federal programs.
  2. Check eligibility first. Look for the applicant types, the geography and whether the listing funds projects or general operations.
  3. Mind the deadline. Count backwards from the due date and allow time for registrations and attachments.
  4. Prepare the basics. Your IRS determination letter, budget and board list are asked for by almost every funder. See our free guides below.
