How to Find State Funding for High School Athletic Programs
- 1). Go to your state's department of education home page. This is the most likely place for you to find state government grants.
- 2). Search the website for athletics grants. You can search for grants for specific sports, for general athletics grants, and, more generally, for grants for extracurricular activities. The details for the grants should be listed on the website, and you should be able to see whether or not your school qualifies to apply for the grant money available.
- 3). Send an email to the help desk of the site. Explain that you're trying to find grants for your high school's athletic programs, but that you want to be sure you got all of the available grants in your search. List the ones you found, and ask if there are others that you didn't locate.
- 4). Apply for the grants that you qualify for. Once your grant application has been received, a governing body will decide whether or not to reward your particular athletics programs with the money you applied for.
