Grant Opportunities

Grant Development Resources
The Internet offers a wide variety of sites that provide both information and services to assist faculty and staff in their search for appropriate funding opportunities.

Program and Foundation Search
Brazosport College subscribes to several grant catalogs. Although considerable general grant information is available on the Internet for free, funder database searches are restricted to paid subscribers (and requires a password). If you are interested in having a specific search conducted, please contact the Grant Office at ext. 3142.
