South Florida Grants

Nonprofits in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties sit in one of the most layered funding markets in the country: federal programs, State of Florida agencies, three county governments with their own grant offices, and a deep bench of local foundations. The catch is that each layer publishes opportunities in a different place, on a different schedule, in a different format.

GrantLens pulls all of it into one searchable database — refreshed daily, deduplicated across sources, and scored against your organization's mission so the opportunities most worth your time surface first.

Where South Florida grant money comes from

Federal

National programs from agencies like HHS, HUD, USDA, and DOJ, published through Grants.gov. Federal awards are usually the largest dollars available to South Florida nonprofits — and the most competitive, with the most paperwork.

State of Florida

Florida state agencies fund everything from health and human services to arts, culture, and environmental work. State opportunities are posted across many separate agency portals, which is exactly the kind of scattering GrantLens exists to fix.

County & local

Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties each run their own grant and RFP programs for community-based organizations — often smaller awards, but with far less competition than federal programs and a strong preference for local applicants.

Foundations

South Florida has an unusually active foundation community: The Children’s Trust (a dedicated funding source for children and families in Miami-Dade), the Miami Foundation, the Knight Foundation, and the Health Foundation of South Florida, among others.
