Self-esteem is a significant aspect of maintaining mental health. However, low self-esteem is also endemic across wide swaths of the population - leading not just to mental health issues, but also substance abuse and difficulties in education and careers. There are many nonprofits that are involved in providing programming designed to help improve self-esteem, particularly in youth or marginalized groups.

These nonprofits are only able to pursue their mission thanks to the generous funding from self-esteem grants. These grants, in turn, are only possible thanks to the organizations who provide them. These include many corporate and private foundations, such as the Dove Self-Esteem Project.

When drafting a self-esteem grant, it's essential to use data to back up your claims. You need to prove that there is a need that your nonprofit is uniquely suited to address. You need, in particular, statistics on recorded self-esteem issues in your targeted community, and correlation between low self-esteem and risk behaviors such as substance abuse. Good places to start collecting this kind of data can include the CDC Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) or the National Institutes of Health.
