Where cash comes
Funding sources are the origins from which money is obtained to support a project, organization, or venture.
Common funding sources include government grants, private investors, bank loans, crowdfunding platforms, and personal savings.
The term appears frequently in grant applications and business plans, where applicants must identify where their money will come from.
