Check out digitalwish.com It will take you through the process to post your grant on their site.
I am looking for any advice on where to look and complete grants on our own! Looking for something to help us get updated toys for the children as well as staff training/retention!! ANY advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Go to your local Wal-Mart Store and get a grant application. Second check your state Community Foundation like here in Idaho we have the Idaho Community Foundation which has grants up to 15,000 for education. If you are within 50 miles of a Best Buy they have technology grants.
I need helping find grants or funds for my preschoolers to take field trips. Please help my inner city students get the field trip opportunities they deserve!
