Grants to Check Out in June
It’s the last month of the financial year, which means it’s a crazy time for grant writers. So many grants close at the end of June. In fact, we have 113 grants listed at The Grants Hub that are currently open and close by 30 June.
You might want to use some of my survival tips from my article on writing big grant applications to help get you through this extremely busy grants season.
Quick tip: don’t forget to give your CEO the heads up on how many applications they will need to sign off on before they hit their desk. No-one loves a last minute surprise when it comes to sign-offs.
If you’re on the hunt for a June grant, here are five of the top grant programs gaining our members’ interest:

-
Improving financial wellbeing
