Stanford Seed Funding
Seed Funding is a site for faculty to find and apply for internal funding opportunities. This service is part of a Dean of Research initiative to reduce the administrative burden incurred by faculty and their teams and to afford them more time for our shared core mission of research and teaching.

Foundation Directory Online
With information on more than 140,000 grantmakers, FDO can help you find the foundation funders you don't know yet. The majority of these grantmakers do not have websites and would otherwise be almost impossible to find. Updated weekly.
