Today we are announcing the biggest expansion in Granted's history: 144 data sources covering all 50 U.S. states, D.C., U.S. territories, and 15+ countries.

Until this week, Granted indexed grants from 12 federal sources. That was already more than most platforms. But we kept hearing the same question from users: "Do you cover my state?"

Now the answer is yes, no matter which state you are in.

What Changed

We went from 12 data sources to 144 in a 24-hour build sprint. Here is what that includes:

Federal Agencies (15 sources)

Every major federal grant portal, synced daily:

All 50 State Portals (52 sources)

Every U.S. state now has its own dedicated ingestion pipeline. We crawl state grant portals for California, New York, Texas, Florida, Illinois, and every other state -- plus D.C. and U.S. territories.

This matters because state-level grants are where many nonprofits, schools, and small organizations find their first funding. These grants are often less competitive than federal programs and more aligned with local priorities.

International Sources (20+ sources)

Granted now indexes grants from 15+ countries across five continents:

Foundation Intelligence (10 sources)

Our foundation coverage also expanded:

Why This Matters

If you are a nonprofit in Ohio looking for state-level community development grants, you can now find them alongside federal HUD and EPA opportunities in a single search.

If you are a researcher in Germany exploring transatlantic funding, you can search DFG and NSF programs at the same time.

If you are a K-12 school in Mississippi, your state education agency grants now appear alongside Title I and IDEA federal programs.

One search. Every source. That is the goal, and 144 sources gets us closer.

See the Full Coverage

We built a dedicated Data Coverage page where you can see every source we index, organized by federal agencies, state portals, international funders, and foundation intelligence.

Education Research Grantmaking Restarts After 15 Months: Five IES Competitions Close October 1, and the Topic List Just Shrank to Six

The Institute of Education Sciences announced its FY27 grantmaking on August 6 — five competitions with an October 1 deadline, optional letters of intent September 3, and awards from $350,000 to $1.2 million. The bigger news is structural: IES has narrowed its research priorities to literacy and STEM for general education and four topics for special education through FY2029, and is organizing grantees into coordinated hubs. Here is what changed, what the award ceilings actually are, and why the field-initiated competitions everyone is waiting for do not open until December.

Four Certifications, One Academic Year: The December 31 FAR Deadline and the Section 117 Rule That Now Gates Your Grant Eligibility

A compliance roadmap published August 19 lays out what colleges and universities have to certify before the 2026-2027 academic year — and two of the items get almost no attention. FAR 52.222-90 must be flowed into existing contracts by December 31, 2026. And under EO 14282, certification of Section 117 foreign gift compliance is now expressly material to False Claims Act liability and to receiving federal grant funds at all. Here is the full stack, the dates, and what a defensible file looks like.
