Browse Requests for Help
This list of grant applications from low-income individuals, families, and small non-profit organizations is the heart of our work at Modest Needs.
This seal next to an application indicates that Modest Needs' Client Advocacy Specialists have performed extensive due diligence on that application. We are happy to report that, for these applications, the documentation we have on file shows each applicant's or non-profit organization's situation to be exactly as described in the 'Application Details' of each request for help.
You can use our convenient 'Display Preferences' feature to quickly search our database for the types of applications from individuals and non-profits that matter most to you. Just select your preferences and click 'Search' to see only applications from a particular area, from a particular type of non-profit, in a particular price range, or from applicants facing a particular type of crisis (for example, the imminent loss of a home.)
Once you've found the applications you'd most like to see, you can review the details of or invest some of your Modest Needs points in an application by clicking the button that says 'Learn More or Invest Points' next to the application of your choice and following the simple, on-screen instructions.
Thank you in advance for your support. Enjoy!
