How to Apply
Currently available grants will be listed on our General Grant Information page. Once Notices of Funding Opportunities are made available, eligible prime grantees may apply for one of our grants through Grants.gov. For help in determining if you are eligible to apply for a National Maritime Heritage Grant, please see our Application Information page or our Frequently Asked Questions.
The National Park Service cannot accept applications submitted outside of the Grants.gov portal. We also cannot accept emailed applications. Detailed instructions on how to apply for a grant are included in the Notice of Funding Opportunities.
Grants.gov is the government-wide database that hosts grants and serves as the portal through which applicants apply for grants. Before registering with Grants.gov, new applicants will need a Unique Entity ID issued by SAM.gov.
For more information on the National Maritime Heritage Grants process, see our Frequently Asked Questions.
