On The Road With GrantWatch

Skagway Development Corporation

Kaitlyn Jared

Executive Director

Today, we are in Skagway, Alaska, on the road again. I'm Libby Hikind, the founder and CEO of GrantWatch.com.

I am here in Skagway with Kaitlyn Jared, the executive director of the Skagway Development Corporation.

Kaitlyn said her organization does a lot for the surrounding areas.

“For a small community, we do a lot of different things,” Kaitlyn said. “We help local groups find grants and funding to make their events and programs happen and make initiatives happen.”

She said that she is happy with her time spent on GrantWatch, because it allows her to find the grants she needs to continue this important work.

“Even though I knew about the Alaska Community Foundation, the site showed me that they had an active grant up right now for a community project,” Kaitlyn explained. “That was another $150,000 grant that we were able to offer as assistance to small businesses that were hit with the Coronavirus pandemic.”

Kaitlyn also noted that one of the advantages of using the GrantWatch’s search filters is that it narrows down to grants available in a specific location.

“We use GrantWatch, because I found that Grants.gov was really extensive and cumbersome and not really Alaska-specific,” she said. “GrantWatch has helped us narrow down Alaska-specific grants, particularly foundation grants.”

“Unlike other sites that list every single grant from the past three or four years, GrantWatch shows available grants you can actually apply for right away."
