Grant Funding in 2025 and the Political Landscape

The world of nonprofit funding never stays the same for long. Every election cycle brings shifts in priorities, budgets and policies. Some programs grow while others shrink. Foundations rethink their giving strategies. Government funding moves in new directions. Nonprofits that understand these changes will have an advantage in the year ahead.

This year brings a mix of opportunities and challenges. Federal budgets reflect new leadership. Private foundations adjust to the economic climate. Certain causes gain traction while others face new barriers. Organizations that rely on grants must prepare for a different funding landscape.
