Grants for Nonprofits in Vermont

Vermont posts state grants agency by agency. GrantCue reads the grant listings of the Agency of Commerce and Community Development, whose departments cover housing and community development, historic preservation and tourism.

The Vermont Arts Council, the nonprofit that is the state's designated arts agency, keeps a Find a Grant board with each program's status, deadline and who can apply. New users must register in its grant portal before applying, and each new account is reviewed and approved within one to two business days, so registering early avoids a wait at deadline time. Vermont's community foundations run their own grant programs.
