The internet seems full of ads for free grants for just about any purpose imaginable - education, home repair, just to name a few.

Here in Croatia, government grants are usually awarded to groups or individuals who are using the money to help their communities, not to individuals !!!. 

The Croatia government also does not charge a processing fee for their grants as their services are funded by tax dollars.  Another key difference between legitimate government grants and scams is that you will not be asked to provide personal information over the phone.
