Well depending upon where you are when you say that you are "in the process" of starting a center.....
Like I replied before I had just sent one of my clients 10 pages worth of information about grant programs for their for-profit daycare.
Is your for-profit going to be licensed?
Did you know that their are Christian organizations that award grant money?
Did you know that there are some grant programs that are geared towards providing grant money for people to start their own business?
The above gives you at least 3 different categories of grant programs that you should be looking into.
The very first place for you to start should be with your own state's website.
You should also take a look at one of my posts in my blog about how one man who runs a for-profit daycare got government grants for his daycare and when he opens up a subsequent daycare he applies for and gets the same grant(s) for his new daycare.
I know from professional experience that there are grant programs out there for the for-profit daycares but I also know that not all of the for-profit daycares fit the eligibility requirements.
As far as "ideas" go - and like I said above - you should first start with your own state's website to see what kind of programs they have open.

I am trying to find a grant to allow Challenge Day to come to our school. It's a program that allows students who normally don't talk to eachother to get together and explore their differences. It helps with discipline issues and bullying.

Our tech committee is in the process of trying to find funding to upgrade our computer software. Does anyone know of any tech grants or sites where I can find some?

If your tech committee is a non-profit organization, there is a $25,000 award program geared towards helping children and parents to better understand technology however the deadline to apply is this month.
I've got some great advice from the science and NBCT boards, so I thought I would try this one too. Thanks for looking.
My idea in a nutshell:
Called "Xtreme Vehicle Challenge"
For 9-12 physical science and physics students.
It would be county-wide and available to all high schools within the county who wanted to participate.
Students will create / build 4 types of vehicles: 1. CO2 dragster - they have to cut it out of wood, snad, paint, etc. The races are exciting. The cars get up to about 60 mph. This dragster requires a special track ($3000).
2. Monster trucks - The students receive a monster truck kit but no instructions. They have creative and mechanical range on their truck. It must pass through a special obstacle course. Course cost ($700)
3. Estes Rockets
4. Mousetrap cars - greatest distance traveled on a single mousetrap.
I would mention the fact that we are in a rural, low income county in Alabama. Each type vehicle can be tried to multiple national and state science objectives.
I'm envisioning a big, competition event between the various high schools in our county.
The majority of grant money will go to the tracks and materials to build the cars. Maybe a $5000 grant?
So what do you think???? Is this a grant worthy idea???
