## What it is
A curated list of microgrant programs that provide small, often no-strings-attached grants to individuals with good ideas. It also includes templates for people who want to start their own microgrant program.

## Use cases
- find small grants to fund a side project
- look for no-strings-attached funding for a good idea
- discover microgrant programs for students and dropouts
- find grants for artists and community projects
- research funding options before applying to accelerators
- start my own microgrant program with templates

## When to choose
- you are an individual, student, artist, or indie builder seeking small amounts of funding ($50-$5K)
- you want a browsable directory of grant programs with amounts and eligibility
- you want ready-made templates to launch a microgrant program

## When to avoid
- you need large-scale venture funding or institutional research grants
- you want software to manage or automate grant applications
- you need a database with structured search and filtering rather than a static list
