How to Find the Grantor Contact Information on a Funding Opportunity

Posted on July 28, 2021July 29, 2021 by Grants.gov

Sometimes applicants have questions about the specific requirements for a funding opportunity. For example, they might seek a clarification
about what should be included in a budget narrative. Or they may have trouble accessing the full Funding Opportunity Announcement
(FOA) electronically.

When questions like these arise, applicants should reach out to the Grantor Contact listed near the bottom of the Synopsis tab on the FOA
(called the View Grant Opportunity page in Grants.gov).
