Chicago Arts Nonprofit Grants
Community⏱ Weekly digest, Fridays
Grant prospecting eats a day a month, and half the leads turn out expired or out of scope. This watch screens new opportunities against your budget size, geography, and 501(c)(3) status, and only surfaces the ones you are eligible for with enough time to apply.

The prompt
I'm the development director of a small performing-arts nonprofit in Chicago with a $400k annual budget. Find grant opportunities between $10k and $75k open to Illinois 501(c)(3) arts organizations. Must have a clear deadline at least 4 weeks out and an application light enough for a two-person team. General operating support is preferred over project-only funding; multi-year grants are a bonus.
This is the whole template — the words the wizard analyzes into sources, filters, and a schedule. You review and edit every step before the watch runs.

EU AI Act Deadline TrackerOfficial
Every AI Act deadline and implementing act, before it lands on you.
I run compliance at a 40-person B2B SaaS company whose product uses machine learning for HR screening, so we likely fall under the EU AI Act's high-risk category. Alert me to every new implementing act, delegated act, harmonised standard, or enforcement deadline that affects high-risk AI providers. Must-haves: concrete compliance dates and obligations, not opinion pieces. National-level guidance from Germany or France is a bonus.

Small-business set-asides worth $250k to $2M, surfaced the morning they post.
I own an 8-person software consultancy registered as a small business in Virginia. Watch for federal IT and software development solicitations worth $250k to $2M that are small-business set-asides. Must be NAICS 541511 or 541512 and either remote-performable or within 50 miles of Washington DC. CMMC requirements are fine; anything requiring Top Secret clearance is out.

Bavarian Construction TendersCommunity
Road and bridge tenders from €500k in Bavaria, caught three weeks before deadline.
We're a mid-size civil engineering firm in Munich looking for public road and bridge construction tenders in Bavaria between €500k and €5M. Must be open-procedure tenders with submission deadlines at least 3 weeks out. Projects within 150 km of Munich are preferred; framework agreements are a bonus, PPP concessions are not interesting.
