The federal government spent more than 30 percent of its annual budget in fiscal year 2011 on purchasing services and supporting local and state governments, tribal organizations, nonprofit organizations, and for-profit firms through contracts and grants. The nonprofit sector, in turn, relies heavily on government for revenue to perform services and provide goods to clients. As of 2010, nearly one-third of revenue sources for reporting public charities comes from the government through contracts (23.9 percent) or grants (8.3 percent) (Blackwood, Roeger, and Pettijohn 2012). Despite nonprofits’ widespread reliance on all levels of government for financial support, contracts and grants continue to be a mystery for many in the nonprofit sector. This brief provides an overview of the main funding mechanisms the government uses and highlights the characteristics of contracts and grants that make them similar to, but also quite different from, each other in risks, regulations, and redress of grievances.
According to available data, the federal government provides billions of dollars in funding to nonprofits each year, with the exact amount fluctuating based on the federal budget and agency priorities; in 2021, the federal government was the largest source of funding for nonprofit research and development, providing around $11.6 billion, representing 43% of total R&D funding in the sector.

Of all donations made to nonprofits, over 80% come from individuals. For this reason, it's wise to focus on individual donors and make them a central focus of your funding model. Individual donors can make one-time or recurring donations.
