Federal Grant Funding

Print

Alaska is a young state, and Alaskans are always looking for innovative ways to move forward on funding opportunities for important projects and programs. With the focus on reducing the federal deficit and cutting spending, the need to get creative with financing becomes even greater. However, federal grants are still an option for finding critical funding, and Senator Begich’s office is ready to help you navigate the process.

Federal grants come from federal agencies, and they target specific needs. Applying for and administering federal dollars involves a lot of work. The information on this page will help you start looking for funding to help you accomplish your goal - whether it’s incorporating a new source of energy in your community, driving innovation in your local school or giving a hand to those in need. If you have more questions about federal grants, please contact Clare Boersma, grant coordinator, in Senator Begich’s Anchorage office at (907) 271-5915 or by email at grants@begich.senate.gov.

Alaska Grants Outreach Newsletter

Dear Friends,

It's finally summer in Alaska and we are all taking advantage of the long daylight hours to fit in much play and work. I just returned from a productive trip home, during which I had the chance to visit with friends in Ketchikan, Petersburg, Fairbanks, Fort Yukon, Anchorage, Palmer, and Wasilla. It was great to be home, and I enjoyed seeing many of you at the annual Alaska Congressional Delegation Grants Symposium.

GrantsSymposium

Nearly 200 people showed up to take advantage of the information provided at the 2012 Alaska Congressional Delegation Grants Symposium.

The Grants Symposium is an excellent chance to connect with resources to get projects and programs going, and I was happy to host the event with my partners in the congressional delegation. If you weren’t able to attend or view the livestream, look for footage of the event coming soon on my website.

As a way to stay connected and continue to bring you information about funding opportunities, I’m happy to share my first monthly grants e-newsletter. I hope you will take a minute to check out these opportunities, and let me know what I can do to help you by calling my office, sending me a letter or emailing me.

Application deadlines and guidelines for the opportunities listed below may change, so please get in touch with the funding agency before applying.

Sincerely,
Digital Signature
Senator Mark Begich
