Check your local library to see if they are a cooperating collection 
with The Foundation Center in New York.  If no, they can steer you to 
the area collection.  There will be books, publication, CD and 
Internet sources of grant materials for foundations as well as links 
to government sources.  I am supervisor of this collection in 
our library as well as a literacy and ESL author.  Material on 
education, children and youth, projects and other areas would be a 
start.    The library is a good source as well as your internet.  Try 
the links via the foundation center  at www.fdncenter.org as well as 
the NIFL sites.  lmc
