September 26th: Grants For Military-Connected Entrepreneurs, Podcasters, Filmmakers, and More
2022 is undoubtedly the year for your creative project and business!
Hey, creators!
In this newsletter, we’re sharing 35 funding opportunities ranging from $100 to $90,000. There are some interesting opportunities, including one for Armenian translators (#8), teachers using the visual arts (#13), filmmakers with short films covering mental health issues (#19), and more.
As a reminder, this newsletter is organized in chronological order. Awards with later deadlines are featured further down the list.
I hope you find something interesting that catches your eye. But one thing about grants is — you can’t time when they come out. So keep your eyes peeled for what you’re looking for because you never know what lies ahead.
