This means the grant deadline is open and accepting applications until one of the following happens:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A) The funding source runs out of funds, or<br \/>B) The funding source is no longer offering the grant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Benefits of an Ongoing Grant<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>For ongoing or rolling grants, you can typically apply at any time during the year. While some funders may have a quarterly or monthly deadline (like the first of the month), they will accept applications at any time.  Grant applications received after the first will be reviewed with the applications submitted the following month.  Funders may review and\/or award grants multiple times throughout the year or only annually.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Applying for an ongoing grant can help generate lifelong partnerships with funding sources. Depending on the guidelines given by the funder, you could potentially apply for and win the same grant each year. In addition, your ongoing relationship with the funder could provide you with a stable stream of funding and help your organization run vital programs and services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Discover Ongoing Grants<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Using <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grant-search.php?search=advanced\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GrantWatch.com<\/a><\/strong>, the leading grant listing directory, you can <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grant-search.php?search=advanced\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">search for grants<\/a><\/strong> that have an ongoing deadline.
