Funding Options

Funding Overview

At WingShield, we’re committed to helping you find the funding you need to acquire cutting-edge safety solutions. While we don’t directly offer grants or financing, we provide resources and guidance to help you navigate the funding process. Below, you’ll find various options to secure financial support for your safety projects.

Federal Government Grants

Federal grants are a great resource for funding security solutions. Organizations may qualify for support through programs such as the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP). Use these FEMA-approved codes to include WingShield-compatible devices in your applications:

  • 14EX-00-BSIR: Systems to mitigate damage from blasts, shocks, or impacts (e.g., deflection shields, shatter-resistant glass).
  • 14SW-01-DOOR: Reinforced doors and gates with increased resistance to external impact.
  • 14SW-01-WALL: Barriers like fences and Jersey barriers to channel or stop pedestrian or vehicle traffic.

For more details, visit the NSGP Application Process page on FEMA.gov.

State Grants

Many states offer their own grant programs to help schools, nonprofits, and other organizations improve safety infrastructure. Research your state’s available options to find funding opportunities tailored to your needs.

Crowdfunding

Crowdfunding platforms provide an excellent way to independently raise funds. By creating a compelling campaign, you can engage your community to support your efforts to secure WingShield-compatible safety solutions.

Financing Options

If grants or crowdfunding aren’t feasible, consider exploring private financing options through banks or financial institutions. WingShield provides information on recommended financing methods to help you get started.
