Disclaimer
The short version: The Grant Map is an independent research tool. We are not a government agency, we do not administer grants, and we cannot guarantee that any program is current, accepting applications, or will approve you. Always verify with the official program contact before you rely on anything here.
No government affiliation
The Grant Map is operated by StanHattie LLC, a private Iowa company. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or funded by any city, county, state, federal agency, utility, or nonprofit listed on this site. Program names, logos, and official websites are used for identification purposes only.
Not legal, financial, or tax advice
Content on The Grant Map is for informational purposes only. It is not legal advice, financial advice, tax advice, or a recommendation to apply for any specific program. Grant eligibility, tax implications, and program rules vary by jurisdiction and change over time. Consult a qualified attorney, financial advisor, or tax professional before making decisions based on information you find here.
Accuracy and currency of information
Grant programs change constantly: funding runs out mid-year, income limits are adjusted, deadlines move, and contact information becomes outdated. We re-check program links every week and hand-maintain the federal layer, but the underlying program details are compiled periodically and are not refreshed continuously, so we cannot guarantee that any specific program detail is correct at the exact moment you read it. An Unknown funding status means current availability has not been confirmed; it is not a claim that funding is open.
Always verify every detail directly with the administering organization before submitting an application, hiring a contractor, or incurring any expense. A detail page shows the source, application, or contact information we have on file; a link can lead to a general agency page rather than a program-specific application, and a phone number may be unavailable.
Our program data is compiled using automated and AI-assisted research combined with human review and scheduled link checks. Like any dataset built at this scale, it can contain errors. Follow the cited source, confirm that it refers to the program shown, and verify the details with the administering organization before relying on them. You can see measured link-health and record checks at our public data-health endpoint.
No guarantee of eligibility or funding
Listing a program on The Grant Map does not mean you qualify for it, that funding is still available, or that your application will be approved. Eligibility decisions are made solely by the program administrator using their own rules, their own review process, and their own funding constraints. We have no control over and no visibility into their decisions.
Dollar amounts and savings claims
Amounts shown are published ceilings, examples, or ranges for one program, not a promise of what you will receive. The Grant Map does not add ceilings from separate programs into a personal funding total. Your actual award depends on eligibility, eligible costs, available funds, coordination rules, and the administrator's review. Many applicants receive less than the maximum; some receive nothing.
Contractor directory
Listing on The Grant Map is free for contractors; they pay only when they accept a homeowner lead. Inclusion is not an endorsement of work quality, licensing, insurance, or reliability. The "Grant-Approved" badge is The Grant Map's label after manual review of a claimed profile and its stated program experience; it is not government approval and does not mean we independently verified licensing, insurance, work quality, or a project outcome. Verify license, insurance, references, and fit before hiring.
Some listings are "unclaimed," meaning we built them from publicly available business records rather than from the contractor signing up. Unclaimed listings are labeled as sourced from public records and not yet verified, they do not carry the "Grant-Approved" badge, and their presence is not an endorsement. A contractor can claim, correct, or remove an unclaimed listing by emailing support@thegrantmap.com.
External links
Our program detail pages link to cited program or agency pages, application portals, and other external resources. A cited URL may be a general agency page rather than a program-specific page. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or availability. Links may stop working if the external site is moved or taken down.
On city pages, a named city, metro, or state provider appears under Local help only when the repair-assistance catalog also has a probable card for the same provider and named service. Curated national and state locators are exceptions because they identify where to ask. This gate reduces unsupported links, but neither a link nor a card proves service area, open intake, eligibility, funding, an amount, or an award. Purchase-only and down-payment records are outside the public home-repair surface and cannot qualify a provider for that section.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, StanHattie LLC and its operators, employees, and contractors are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from your use of The Grant Map, including but not limited to missed grant deadlines, rejected applications, contractor disputes, or financial losses related to home improvement projects. Your use of this site is at your own risk.
Changes to this disclaimer
We may update this disclaimer at any time. Changes take effect when posted. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated disclaimer.
