FREE CASH GRANTS, NEVER REPAY!
What you get for your $32.95 is a list of foundations, which you could get free from your local public library. However, these foundations do not "give money away." They make grants, usually to non-profit organizations, who write detailed plans that demonstrate how the funds will be used to advance whatever causes a particular foundation is interested in. Are there some foundations that give money to individuals to help them start businesses, go to college or become a beautician? Sure, but you can be pretty certain the demand outstrips the supply. Having said that, some of the "free money" offers are less distasteful than others. Take US Grants. This small Florida company publishes a guide for individuals looking for grants. The guide goes for about $35. Again, you could find most, maybe all, of the information in the library but ... hey, it's your money. Just for the record, there is a highly reputable source of information about philanthropy. It's called The Foundation Center. Its Web site is an excellent reference source. Report Your Experience
