What is Google Ad Grants?

Getting Started: Ad Grants Overview

Google Ad Grants is a program by Google, offering eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofits free advertising on Google’s search engine results pages (SERPs) to reach wider audiences. It provides significant in-kind advertising credits, enabling nonprofits to run text-based ads promoting their missions, programs, and initiatives. Ad Grants offers access to $10,000 per month in free advertising through Google Ads, connecting people with causes since 2003.

• Google Ad Grants work just like standard search advertising: displaying text ads alongside search results when people are using Google to learn, to find, to donate, and to connect with your organization and your mission.
• Google Ad Grants extends the power of search advertising to eligible 501(c)3 nonprofits at no cost. With $10,000 per month in free Google advertising, nonprofits can create meaningful ads to connect with target audiences in a relevant, actionable, and measurable way.
• Google Ad Grants are governed by a distinct set of program policies and guidelines designed to uphold quality standards and foster valuable connections between people and nonprofits.
