What About Generators?

These grant programs are not the best ones to try to use for generator funding. They're low in priority when compared to other projects vying for the same funding.

Instead, contact the Department of General Services to see if your organization is registered with the federal surplus program.

Once your organization is verified, a generator can usually be optained at little to no cost.
