Free grant templates for small nonprofits

Two spreadsheets we built for nonprofits without grants staff: one to keep every deadline in view, and one to build a grant budget that adds itself up.

First page of the Grant Deadline Calendar & Tracker: how-to steps for the Tracker, 12-Month View and Summary tabs

Grant Deadline Calendar & Tracker

One row per grant, with status dropdowns, LOI dates, deadlines and report due dates. A 12-month calendar fills itself in, a summary shows requested vs. awarded and your win rate, and color cues flag deadlines in the next 14 days. Room for 200 grants.

Grant Project Budget template filled with sample numbers: personnel, supplies, equipment, travel, contractual, indirect costs and match summary

Grant Project Budget

Personnel, supplies, equipment, travel, contractual and other costs, split across grant request, cash match and in-kind. It checks every line, calculates indirect costs and your match percentage, and drafts the budget narrative for each line.
