GRANTEES
Are you an organization or individual in search of Federal grants, fellowships, or other assistance? If so,
you should start your search and submit your grant application through Grants.gov.
Grants.gov is THE single access point for over 900 grant
programs offered by the 26 Federal grant-making agencies that allows organizations and individuals to electronically
find and
apply for competitive grant
opportunities from all Federal grant-making agencies.
The first step to getting your organization registered at Grants.gov is to request a DUNS number from Dun and Bradstreet
via the web form and then to register in CCR.
PLEASE NOTE: Individual applicants do not need a DUNS number or to register in CCR.
To submit grant application packages electronically through Grants.gov, organizations and individuals must first complete
the CCR registration process, after requesting a DUNS number from D&B.
Registering with CCR is important because CCR validates applicant information and electronically shares the secure and
encrypted data with Grants.gov, as well as other Federal agencies. CCR will house your organizational information,
allowing Grants.gov to use that information to verify your organization's identity. After you complete the CCR
registration process and your EIN/TIN number has been validated by CCR, you will be able to move to the next steps
of the Grants.gov registration process the very next business day.
Organizations and individuals registering with CCR are required to designate an E-Business Point of Contact (POC)
and create a Marketing Partner Identification Number (MPIN). The E-Business POC becomes the sole Grants.gov authority
for the organization with the capability of designating or revoking an individual's ability to submit grant applications
on behalf of their organization through Grants.gov. This individual will use the MPIN and the organization's DUNS
number to log into Grants.gov.
REMINDER: Individual applicants do not need a DUNS number or to register in CCR.
