This space is for posting info and resources about nonprofit organizations, charities, and foundations.
People from nonprofit organizations are welcome to post info about their own organizations.
Feel free to participate in this public space.
Two easy ways to do this:
Add a comment or a question here - on this page... or on any other page in this space.
Or, if you want to start a separate thread - make a new page (see the menu on the top-left).
Either way is good - the important thing is your participation. On Aidpage, people support each other by speaking out and by paying attention to each other - as simple as that.
So, I just came on board. Wow. I love Aidpage! I am seeking grant funding and just talked to a friend who knows a lot about finding, writing, submitting, and gaining a grant. I don't know if I am encouraged, amazed, or afraid of it. There's too much expertise involved for my small brain. I guess it's like the inch worm - inch by inch it's a cinch. Or remembering that Rome wasn't built in a day...something like that. But, I esteem some people angels without wings and less the halos.

I am an inventor and I love to invent things that makes the world a better place. When youlove to do something there is great joy of doing just that. I have spent all of my money on this invention and I don't have a dime left. I need help! If someone out there can help me with money or tell someone about the invention that can help me put it on the market please help.
All of these companys just want money from the inventor.What we need to do is create an inventors blog that is just for inventors where we can cry on each others shoulders and find ways to help ourselves.
We need to finds ways to do for ourselves. Come to gather and build our own website to show case our product for free. And we need to draw manufactures attention to our mission. Can anyone help me with do that?
I am ready to do something about the problem. We spent all of our money to invent something to make America a better place than we become broke and helpless. Let's help each other.

I have registered in hopes to find help to get home and get to school.
I came out East from Washington because my father was ill and now I can't get home again.
I want to get back, get a job and home so I can get to school for my paralegal certificate. Out here I was able to find only menial part-time work so I am barely surviving let alone able to save to get resettled. The climate here is killing my asthma, which Iwasn't even aware was effecting me out in the dry Western climates. I have years ofwork experience, but mostly contracted so now I am single and having a problem with employers thinking I am not interested in permanent employment - I'm not sure what theydon't understand about changing priorities when becoming single. My ex was a tyrant andmade it hard to do ANYTHING other than serve his needs, but I don't want to excuse myself on that basis.
So here I am trying as hard as I can to "cowboy-up" and pull myself up by my bootstraps. At 53 few people are taking that seriously. I need any help I can find to achieve any of my goals. Working part time and collecting cans on my off hours just isn't cutting it.
I have no clue what else to say about any of this.

I am not diabled, nor am I out of work. My wife was just operated on from a work comp injury and is unable to work, I am living off one paycheck and I am able to just survive. I am looking to move out of Nevada and be with my only living parent my Dad in Florida. The job I have been doing for over 30 years is being phased out and I would like to go back to school and get my Purchasing Degree or Cert. As you can see I have little or no money for this and the cost is less than 5,000.00. This is also a online degree so I can still work full time. Once I get this degree I hope I am able to get out of Nevada and over to Florida with my dad and secure a good paying job. If Not money for school maybe relocation help.
