Grants for Nonprofits in Hawaii
Hawaii state and county agencies post solicitations on HANDS, the Hawaii Awards & Notices Data System, which covers health and human services as well as goods, services and construction. GrantCue reads the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands grant requests for proposals posted there, the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts, and the City and County of Honolulu's funding programs.
The State Foundation on Culture and the Arts funds nonprofit organizations, schools and individuals. For its community arts grants, applicants file an Intent to Apply before the application itself, and both go through the Hawaii GoSmart system, so the intent form is the first step.
