This week’s grant listings number: $3.5 billion.
We’re stable around the edges this week, but all but one Education grant has come off the board, as has a great deal of June’s big rush of HHS funding. Next week will be at least a billion less due to a big Homeland Security grant hitting its deadline.
We’re also in INSANE DEADLINE territory. There’s another new HHS grant with a two-week competition. Despite the White House budget office’s confusing attempts otherwise, it seems like ridiculously short competitions will be a thing again this year.
What’s new this week?
A significant new apprenticeship funding initiative in Massachusetts.
Several new HHS grants, including for job training for people in recovery from opioid-related substance-use disorder.
1000s Of People Are Building Their Own App With Ai. Are You?
Every tool you're paying for right now was built by someone who's never done your job. They guessed at what you needed, wrapped it in a subscription, and now you're locked in - paying monthly for software that's 80% of what you actually want.
That other 20%? It's costing you time, workarounds, and money every single week.
Justin Burns figured out how to close that gap. He builds the exact tool he needs using AI - no code, no developers, no waiting. And this July 22-24, he's showing you how to do the same thing, live, in three days.
The event is free. The app you walk away with is yours.
Grab your seat for the Apps Built With AI Summit and stop paying for software that almost works.
