Welcome To Grants For Creators!
As creators, we’ve all had that one (okay, let’s be real) multiple ideas.
The one(s) that keep us up at night. Shows up in the shower. Whispers at 3 a.m.
These ideas live rent-free in our minds, waiting to be realized.
Your idea(s) deserve support. They deserve funding.
They deserve to be brought to life.

What is a creator?
We consider creators to include podcasters, artists, dancers, musicians, writers, authors, poets, influencers, photographers, filmmakers, journalists, videographers, and more. In short: if you make things (physically or digitally), you’re a creator.
Here’s what some of our subscribers are saying about the newsletter. The community’s excitement keeps us motivated!
What’s involved with creating this newsletter?
Searching for highly relevant grant creators can take a lot of time to curate.
We spend 20+ hours per week researching and working on this newsletter, ensuring subscribers can take action quickly without having to sifting through tons of irrelevant or outdated opportunities.
Our goal is to eventually launch our own creator fund to offer grants.
Where have we been featured?
Since launching in January 2022, we’ve been featured in Podnews, HMI, Podcasting Seriously, Black Podcasting Awards, and Afros & Audio, to name a few.
We’ve also been invited to speak at several events and podcasts.

Thank you for helping us spread the word!
About Our Founder
Hi there, I’m Danielle Desir Corbett.
I’m a former Grants Manager turned 6x grant-funded podcaster, author, and writer.
In a past life, I helped researchers search for and apply for grant opportunities to fund their research projects.
Note: I was not a grant writer — instead, think of me as a project manager.
I kept my Principal Investigators on track, meeting all their deadlines and ensuring they had all the pieces required for submissions. When the grants were funded, I assisted with reporting and financial management.
Throughout my tenure, I submitted multi-million-dollar grant proposals for 7 years, until 2021, when I quit my corporate career to pursue creative entrepreneurship.
By 2021, I received four grants for my creative work.
My eyes were now open to the possibility. Winning grants taught me creators and small business owners can fund their ideas, too. Wow!
After regularly finding so many grant opportunities (and having nowhere to share them), I created Grants For Creators to:
1) Encourage creators to consider themselves worthy of winning grants to fund the growth of their businesses.
2) Help creators find relevant grants and funding opportunities faster.
3) Share helpful grant writing tips to secure funding.
Applying to grants and other paid opportunities has changed the trajectory of my business (and life), and I want the same for you.
So leave the research to me. Not only am I really good at it, but it’s also a lot of fun!
