Here is everything we tracked in Grant Watch this week. Three posts went up between October 20 and October 22, covering new federal money for tribal grid work, free manufacturing training through the SBA, and disaster loans in Arizona. Nothing on this list closes in the next two weeks, so you have time to look it over.

Tribal Energy Grant Watch: October 22, 2026

The Department of Energy added about $967 million to its Grid Resilience State and Tribal Formula Grants program. Federally recognized tribes have a set allocation they can claim for work that makes local power systems more reliable in storms and outages. Deadline: February 17, 2027.

Entrepreneur Grant Watch: October 21, 2026

Two items. The SBA opened Economic Injury Disaster Loans of up to $2 million for small businesses and nonprofits in Coconino County, Arizona that lost income in the late-summer Grand Canyon flooding, with no physical damage required. Deadline: July 13, 2027. The same post covers the SBA’s $9.5 million in manufacturing training awards, with no deadline announced.

Entrepreneur Grant Watch: October 20, 2026

The SBA’s Office of Native American Affairs put $9.5 million into free manufacturing training at Navajo Technical University (New Mexico, Arizona, Utah) and Chippewa Sustainable Solutions in North Dakota. The money goes to the training hubs, not to individual businesses, so eligible small manufacturers sign up for the free classes and advising rather than applying for cash. No deadline announced.
