Is there any completely free government grants for individuals?

I’m trying to find free government grants but every website I go to ends up asking me to pay such and such just to get a list of free grants. Can anyone help me out?

There are many scam artists who claim it is easy to get grants from the federal government. The most famous is Matthew Lesko, "the answer guy." They try to make money off you selling books or bogus services. Never pay someone to find you a grant.

In general, it is hard for individuals to get grants from the Federal government. If you are a expert you can get grants to study spotted owls, or help underprivileged children, but in general these grants are given to organizations, not individuals.

You can go to these free government sites in the sources below to learn about grants, but I doubt you will find any you qualify for

Truthfully, there are only two types of government grants that people are likely to qualify for. First, there is Welfare, which is a type of government grant. Second, you can sometimes get government grants (scholarships) to go to school. Other than that, it is unlikely you will get a government grant.
