Hispanic Grants

The one thing that is certain about our economy is that most Hispanics can always use more money – especially when they are trying to do something productive, such as going to school for the first time, going back to school or starting a Hispanic Business. While it seems the only option for obtaining money is to take out a loan for assistance, many Hispanics don’t know there are millions of dollars in free grants sitting around waiting for someone to claim it.

So why doesn’t the HispanicĀ population know about this free money? Because it is often not advertised to Latinos. But now there are websites popping up that are assisting in bridging the gap between the grantor and potential Hispanic grantee. This website will assist you in exploring websites that will provide useful information to help you apply for freeĀ grants.

Grants.gov is a fantastic source to not only find, but apply for free grants from the government. This site is co-run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services who has the intention of dispersing all available grant money to qualified applicants. So your objective should then be to see what grants you are eligible for.

In order to apply for free grants through Grants.gov you must first search for grants through their tracking system. Once you have selected the one or more grants you’re interested in applying for, you will begin the application process. First you will download the grant application package, which you then can complete offline. Full instructions are provided in the package as well as an online tutorial. Once you are ready to submit, you click Save then click the Submit button and your application is ready to go. The application process can take anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks to complete, but you can track its status anytime on their Track Your Application page. Once everything is done, you’ll find out whether you’ve been approved – let’s hope you were – then you’re finished. It doesn’t get easier than this!

Financial Freedom Express is a website that assists potential applicants in finding general government, college, business, personal, health care and private grants. They offer a government grants guide that will help you apply for free grants with little hassle. They profess to have been created for the “do-it-yourself grant seeker who is interested in seeking out and applying for the grant, loan, and scholarship programs that he or she is eligible for.” And to assist you, they have you start by choosing the grant type you are interested in pursuing, whether it be for college, business or personal.

Once you select your grant type, you are taken to a list of information regarding that particular grant type, including list of ways you may be eligible. Then you are instructed to download the grants guide, which you find out costs $9.99. While it may not seem fair to have to pay for this information, depending on your needs, it may be worth it to shell out a few bucks to receive a boatload of information that will eventually help you more than cover the purchase. But they assure you that with the purchase you will gain access to over 670 pages of free money information, so you may want to give a try – the choice is yours.

FAFSA.ed.gov

FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is probably one of the most well-known places to begin your federal financial aid process. If you are looking to apply for free grants for your college experience, this is typically where you start, unless you are working through a private institution or organization. It is best to fill out there FAFSA as soon as possible after the calendar year begins (and after you have filed your federal taxes) because money is given on a first-come, first-served basis. On the FAFSA website they explain all of the information needed to get started and even provide an online application for once you’re ready. Also, school counselors and financial aid offices are very helpful in getting you started. So if you want government assistance for school, this is the way to go.

StudentLoanXpress.com

Student Loan Xpress is, of course, a website that focuses on helping individuals apply for free grants for school. They specialize in educating prospective grant applicants on the best ways to apply for free money. They explain that grants and scholarships are by far the wisest way to go if you are interested in money for school because you don’t have to repay the funds. However, they explain, grants are typically very competitive, which means you will need to maintain a high G.P.A. and competitive test scores.

To help you get started, they provide government grant and scholarship information, as well as directions on how to fill out the FAFSA. They also provide a lot of information on applying for student loans – but that’s not what you’re looking for, right? Well, okay, if you are, you’ll find what you need with Student Loan Xpress.

When you are trying to get the money you need to accomplish your goals, it can almost seem as though there is no help available out there. But with these and other websites to help you apply for free grants, you will have a great steppingstone toward obtaining your goals. They are providing you with services that can potentially change your life. And after you’ve gained success from someone else’s helping hand you might feel inspired to be that helping hand for someone else – then you might just be the one showing others how to apply for free grants. So why not begin the helping-hand cycle today.
