FOUNDATION GRANTS FOR PERSONAL NEEDS
These types of grants
are awarded by wealthy foundations, corporations, and families,
and usually have very specific qualifications, and are
sometimes limited to certain states or geographic areas.
Some are limited
to persons with certain types of disabilities, medical
or living problems, or other specific needs. Each foundation
addresses
particular needs based on their own fields of humanitarian
interest.
Still, many different types of personal
needs are addressed by the foundations listed below. If
you want
the money
and can prove you deserve it, it's probably there waiting
for you.
