We advise careful consideration if you are thinking about responding to solicitations or ads for "free" grant money. Companies that telemarket or place government grant ads, have no affiliation with the government, but rather, are third parties attempting to capitalize on information that can be obtained for free from government agencies or websites.
Government grants are not designed to provide a means for you to pay your bills or have extra spending money. Generally, obtaining a grant is a complicated process requiring documentation and research, and is primarily for education, research, and business purposes. Although foundations may exist whose requirements are based on personal preference, the vast majority requires applicants to meet very specific guidelines they have established to even qualify.
