Find the grants that actually fit your mission.
Matching local non-profits to regional funders based on what an organization actually does — and explicitly does not do — rather than on mission-statement language.
Great work is happening.
But finding the right funding can be difficult.
Nonprofits spend valuable time searching for grants that aren't the right fit. Funders receive applications that don't align with their priorities. Good ideas get missed — and communities lose out.
There's a better way.
A stronger, more connected community.

GrantAlign uses six weighted dimensions to connect nonprofits with funders who are the right fit — based on substance, not just keywords.
Six weighted dimensions,
so a seeker can see which one sank a match.
Our matching engine looks beyond keywords to understand real alignment, using six key dimensions:
Negative scope
What an organization does NOT do, and who a funder will NOT fund. Our engine surfaces this one “skip this one” with confidence.
Research with sources
Every proposed criterion carries the page it came from. Nothing reaches a live profile without a source.
Blockers over scores
A stated exclusion, an out-of-area address or missing mandatory paperwork forces a skip regardless of the numeric fit.
