Veterans Services Grants Coming Up in September

September brings a steady stream of opportunities for nonprofits serving veterans and their families. The funders below are actively accepting applications, and several offer rolling deadlines, which means you can move at your own pace rather than racing toward a single hard close. That flexibility is worth using: it gives you time to build the relationship with each funder before you submit.

Montana Veterans Association Foundation: Grant for Nonprofits Serving Veterans and Their Families

The Montana Veterans Association Foundation supports 501(c)(3) organizations running projects and programs that directly benefit Montana veterans and their families. Their mission centers on education, support, and advocacy for veterans causes. If your work aligns with that focus and you're based in Montana, this is a natural relationship to develop. The deadline is rolling, so you can apply whenever your proposal is ready. Apply here

Florida Veterans Foundation: Grant for Nonprofits Providing Dental Care to Veterans

Dental care is often the first thing veterans skip when money gets tight. The Florida Veterans Foundation funds Florida-based nonprofits that provide dental exams, cleanings, fillings, extractions, dentures, and specialized procedures to veterans facing financial hardship. If your organization fills this gap, this funder is already looking for you. Rolling deadline means you can apply on your timeline. Apply here

U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs: Grant for Nonprofits Serving Homeless and At-Risk Veteran Families

This is a significant federal program: the VA's supportive services grants reach private nonprofits and consumer cooperatives working with very low-income veteran families who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, or recently housed. The program emphasizes rapid re-housing and homelessness prevention. For fiscal year 2026, the VA is prioritizing tribal and rural communities, U.S. territories, and existing grantees with strong track records. If your work touches veteran homelessness, this funder's priorities align with yours. Rolling deadline. Apply here

U.S. Department of Labor, Veterans' Employment and Training Service: Grant for Organizations Serving Homeless Veterans

The Department of Labor's VETS program is the only federal grant exclusively focused on competitive employment for homeless veterans. It funds employment and training services delivered by nonprofits, for-profits, government agencies, tribal organizations, and higher education institutions. If you're helping homeless veterans into work, this is your federal partner. Rolling deadline. Apply here

USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture: Grant for Organizations Supporting Veteran Agricultural Opportunities

Farming and ranching draw veterans for good reason: the work is concrete, the land is real, and the independence appeals to people who've served. NIFA funds organizations that help veterans enter and succeed in agriculture. If you're building capacity for veteran agricultural training, education, or business development, this competitive grant is designed for you. Rolling deadline. Apply here

Idaho Division of Veterans Services: Grant for Veterans-Serving Organizations and Individuals

Idaho's Division of Veterans Services offers smaller grants, up to $5,000, for programs benefiting Idaho veterans. They fund career training, health and rehabilitation, public awareness, and ceremonial support. They prioritize proposals that serve the most veterans and for which no other funding source exists. If you're in Idaho and running a lean program, this funder values efficiency and reach. Rolling deadline. Apply here
