Grants for Nonprofits in Virginia

The Virginia Governor's office keeps a list of grants offered by state agencies, alongside a federal grants search, a list of Virginia's community foundations and contacts for the grant staff of each city and county.

GrantCue reads the agency sources directly: Housing and Community Development, the Commission for the Arts, Virginia Housing, Environmental Quality, the Tourism Corporation, Forestry, the Virginia Outdoors Foundation and several agency WebGrants sites, plus Virginia Beach. Arts grants come from the Virginia Commission for the Arts, which also administers the grants funded by Virginia's arts specialty license plate; most of each plate fee goes to them.
