Monmouth University’s Office of Grants and Contracts (OGAC) subscribes to the Grant Resource Center of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) and receives comprehensive bulletins and a monthly database of available funding from public and private sources. To gain access to the Grant Resource Center, please log into the MyMU Portal and navigate to the For Your Information tab and select Grant Resource Center from the expanded navigation menu.
The OGAC develops a database of available funding from a wide variety of resources to benefit the Monmouth University Community. We will be sending out via email; grant email memos, future funding opportunities bulletins, and a newsletter in an effort to keep you as informed as possible.
You can also check out our resources for yourself. They include but are not limited to the following:
- AASCU Grants Resource Center – see the instructions above.
- Foundation Center – Monmouth University subscribes to the Foundation Center database and their CD-ROM for everyone to use free at the Monmouth University Library. It specifically contains private funding sources from corporations and/or foundations that include descriptions and contact information from the funding sources.
- Grants.gov – provides funding announcements and daily updates from all (26) federal grant-making agencies at www.grants.gov. Once you are on the site, you can either click on “Find Grant Opportunities.” or you can do a keyword search by clicking on Grant Search on the right-hand side of the page.
- GrantStation – offers nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, and government agencies the opportunity to identify potential funding sources for their programs or projects as well as resources to mentor these organizations through the grant seeking process at https://grantstation.com.
