Claim Your GrantWatch Profile. Earn Your Visibility Tier. Tell Your Story.
Every organization has a story, and you need to keep your organization current while you continue to build trust with your base. Whether you award grants, apply for grants, or do both, your GrantWatch Profile can help tell that story. Every organization can benefit from claiming their GrantWatch Profile. Grant seekers research funders before applying, while foundations review nonprofit applicants. Donors, volunteers, researchers, journalists, and community partners also rely on publicly available information to evaluate organizations and make informed decisions. That’s why it’s important to keep your organization current, build trust, and ensure your information reflects who you are and the work you do.
Right now, GrantWatch is launching Public Organization Profiles, giving eligible organizations the opportunity to claim, verify, and manage their official GrantWatch Profile. Claim Your GrantWatch Profile, tell your story, build trust, and keep your organization current.
What Is a GrantWatch Profile?
A GrantWatch Profile is your organization’s official public presence within the GrantWatch Grant Lifecycle Platform.
Many organizations already have a profile created from publicly available records. However, if you claim your profile on GrantWatch that means your authorized representatives can verify ownership and add organization-managed information that helps visitors better understand who you are, what you do, and how they can connect with you.
Claiming your GrantWatch Profile helps ensure the information people find reflects your organization today.
Why Claim Your GrantWatch Profile?
Public information only tells part of your story.
Your GrantWatch Profile allows your organization to add information that public records often cannot provide, including:
- Your official logo
- Mission statement
- Organization overview
- Programs and services
- Funding priorities
- Geographic areas served
- Leadership information
- Website and contact information
- Public resources
- News and announcements
- Grant history or awards received
- Additional organization information
Instead of relying solely on publicly available records, visitors can learn directly from your organization.

GrantWatch Profiles were designed for organizations across the funding ecosystem, including:
- Nonprofits

- Educational institutions
- School districts
- Municipalities

GrantWatch Profiles Are Human Verified
At GrantWatch, we understand that trust matters. That’s why every profile claim is reviewed by our team before ownership is granted.
To help protect the integrity of organization profiles, only authorized representatives can claim and manage a GrantWatch Profile. This verification process helps ensure that organization-managed information remains accurate, current, and reliable for grant seekers, funders, donors, and community partners.
Once verified, your organization can update its profile whenever information changes, helping you maintain a trusted and up-to-date public presence.
Already Have a Profile?
Many organizations already have a GrantWatch Profile created from publicly available organizational records.
If your organization already exists, simply search for it, claim ownership, and begin customizing your profile.
If you don’t find your organization, you’ll have the opportunity to create a new GrantWatch Profile and become part of the growing GrantWatch ecosystem.
