Thanks to the collaboration of Associated Grant Makers of Massachusetts (AGM), The Oak Bluffs Public Library, and the Martha’s Vineyard Donor Collaborative, and a grant from the Peter and Elizabeth Tower C. Foundation, island non-profits no longer have to travel to Boston for grant research. Grant Resource Network: Martha's Vineyard duplicates the resources and expertise available at AGM's center in Boston, including their research database of 400 local funders, and brings much needed grant seeking support to the Vineyard.

Housed at the Oak Bluffs Public Library and available free to the public, Grant Resource Network: Martha's Vineyard is also a Foundation Center Cooperating Collection so the full resources of that national organization, including their research database of 97,000 grant makers, is also available to Vineyarders. Over 15 people with grant writing and research experience have been trained and are available by appointment to assist those using Network resources. To schedule a session with a trainer contact grnmv@mvdonors.org or cal 508-645-3690.

The center also has useful books, periodicals, directories and other print resources to support non-profits' grant seeking efforts and offer guidance in various aspects of their operations:
