The Grants Office collaborates with faculty and staff members to secure funding for projects to meet the strategic goals of Atlantic Cape. Our expertise is in identifying potential funders and developing high-quality applications. If you are a faculty or staff member, we can help you seek funding from:
Drafting proposal outlines and timelines to ensure that strong proposals are submitted on deadline.All grant applications representing the College must be managed through the Grants Office in coordination with the President's office. Faculty, adjuncts and staff members are not permitted to independently develop and submit Atlantic Cape grant applications.
College policy mandates that all applications for grants, competitive contracts and inter-agency agreements to be submitted by Atlantic Cape, and all applications to be submitted by other organizations with Atlantic Cape as a sub-grantee or funded partner, must be managed by the Grants Office. Atlantic Cape's president will make the ultimate decision for committing the College to any institutional grant, contract or inter-agency agreement.
Please do not provide letters of support representing Atlantic Cape Community College to external partners without working through the Grants Office. Email Emily Smykla, Senior Manager, Grants, for guidance in providing letters of support to a partner.
The Grants Office works in coordination with Atlantic Cape's Nonprofit Resource Center, a program of the College Library hosted at the Cape May County and Worthington Atlantic City campuses.
The Nonprofit Resource Center is a Foundation Directory Funding Information Network (FIN) location. Through the FIN, the Atlantic Cape Library offers free access to three world-class databases for grant seekers: the Foundation Directory Online; Foundation Maps and Foundation Grants for Individuals Online.
