***A Database of Grants and Funding Applications for Charities.***
* * *Dear Coder, thank you for taking the time to read my bid.
I am looking for a database in which I can enter Australian Grants and Funding Applications.
Grants are sums of money awarded to finance a particular activity or facility. In this instance a grant is an amount of money that either a person or a company donates/gives to charities. Charities are asked to submit an application/tender for the grant. Some grants are gender specific, or age specific e.g. children in rural settings; education for people with disabilities, single mums under the age of 20yrs etc. There are opening dates and cosing dates for each grant, these last anywhere between a month to 6 months.
I can provide a link to a website where grants are listed, so that you may get an idea of how they are listed.
I have collected numerous websites that list grants, but there are many more grants that are not published in these websites. Companies are now only placing their grants on their own websites. In total there are probably around 300 available grants. I would like a database in which I can list all the available grants and then choose which one to apply for.
