  There are a variety of grants available to nonprofit organizations that work with children who have been victims of abuse. Grants for nonprofits working with abused children are typically awarded by foundations that grant money to organizations that help women and children. Although some foundations grant money to nonprofits throughout the nation, others make donations to local organizations.
