Northstar Toolkit aggregates open grant opportunities from hundreds of sources. Filter by focus area, geography, and eligibility — then move directly into evidence-based applications.
Most nonprofits work around these challenges every day. Northstar Toolkit is built to solve them.
Grant opportunities are posted on foundation websites, Grants.gov, state portals, and aggregator sites. No single place shows them all.
Today: Teams manually check multiple websites weekly — Grants.gov, foundation portals, GrantWatch — and maintain their own tracking spreadsheets.
Reading through grant requirements and guidelines takes hours. Many opportunities turn out to be poor fits after significant research time.
Today: Grant writers read through full RFPs to determine alignment, often discovering mismatches after investing hours of research.
Finding a grant opportunity and writing the application happen in completely different tools. Research context is lost in the handoff.
Today: Opportunities found in search tools are bookmarked or noted, then the actual application is built from scratch in Word or Google Docs.
Browse open grants from hundreds of sources in one searchable feed. Filter by cause area, geography, grant size, and eligibility. Save promising opportunities and move directly into your grant workflow.
