I don't have any lists of funding sources, but contact your local cooperating collection of the Foundation Center: http://grantspace.org/ They offer training and webinars on this topic as well as free access to a database titled: Foundation Grants to Individuals Online. Hope this lead is helpful and good luck on your research.
