I just saw this. I know they're closed now, but generally are these grants open to average Joe's like us, or do you need to be associated with a group, like ours, or something like UNLV? I ask because we've been trying for years to get grant for the "green" aspects of our project (which only a few people here know about) and sent in many grant applications and nothing ever comes of it. |

I think most of the grants are required to be given to a not for profit entity. There may be a few that do not have this requirement, but very few. But never hurts to ask for the money though. Todd |
