Yeah, but part of the grant always goes to administrative overhead.
At any rate, the grant is going to be issued as the parent
organization and not directly to you; that's the whole point of
working under an umbrella organization. But yes, you're correct that
grants are legal documents with restrictions that have to be observed.
You don't want to be operating under an organization that isn't going
to be paying attention to how you write and word grants in their name.
I was being sloppy in my description of the process, IANAL, etc.

One of the
easiest ways to get off the ground with all the above stuff
that Will recommends is to operate under the umbrella of a larger
501(c)3 organization. This means that you can ask for grants under
their name and give them a piece of it in return for operating under
their aegis.
Warning! Thin ice!
Money from grants is to be used for what the grant is for, and NOTHING
else.
