The second semi-annual survey, conducted by PhilanTech and GrantStation, provides a snapshot of the state of grantseeking.  The 867 respondents ranged from volunteer-run grassroots organizations to large national nonprofits.  

The economy continues to show some signs of recovery, and the state of grantseeking in the U.S. is starting to stabilize:

• Grantseeking and related activities are on the rise, though not increasing enough to return to prerecession levels;
• Mid-sized organizations rely the most on grant awards as a steady source of revenue.  Over a third of organizations with budgets between $250,000 and $5 million reported that grants comprised over 50% of their funding;
• The largest grants were from government sources; more grants were from foundations.
