About Planning Grants grants
Planning grants support organizations in developing strategies, feasibility studies, and blueprints for future initiatives. With 268 active grants listed in this category, funding agencies like the Department of Commerce and National Institutes of Health prioritize projects that strengthen communities through strategic preparation and research-based planning.
These grants typically range from $50,000 to $500,000, with most using competitive applications.

Filtering by recipient type, geographic focus, and industry—such as community or economic development—helps identify the most relevant opportunities.
