My non-profit organization mentors to young African american ladies ages 12-17 that are interested in continuing education after High School,where can I find grants and moneys to support this mentoring organization?
Your best bet is to seek for private grants or grants from private foundations.
The best resource for this is Foundation Center http://www.fdncenter.org . They have a very good database covering all organizations giving grants and you can find foundations that are interested in supporting your type of cause. However, it’s a subscription based website ($19.95 per month I think is the cheapest subscription price). But it certainly is worth the fee. You can subscribe one month, and make sure you get all the info you need and then stop the subscription.
If you want to try federal sources, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov – these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants.
CFDA has several ways to search for grants. I suggest you search by beneficiary and select Private Non Profit Organization and you can find listings of grants available http://12.46.245.173/pls/portal30/CATALOG.BROWSE_BENEF_RPT.show

TRIO, under the Department of Education, may be of interest to you. The First Generation grant is also the first major grant project that springs to mind. Good luck to you!

Well, ask your residing state. They should have enough funds for educational organizations. As well, you can ask big companies like Target, Walmart, as well small companies to see if they would like to donate. When I was in high school, I was in journalism so we made our high school newspaper. The last class who were in charge of our school newspaper left us with almost nothing. We were lacking tools and money so we went around our neighborhood to the small companies and asked if they would like to donate. In exchange for the donations we placed their ad in our newspaper. You can do the same thing with your orginization. Ask for donors to donate money for your orginization. I hope at least i gave you some options.

Contact local news and have them do a story on your organization. Call the NBA, some of the players would surely contribute to your cause.
