Grants with Early Deadlines

So, I didn't get my first round of funding for my dissertation research. Its OK, I know what I did wrong now, its a learning process.....;)

Anyway, my department is funding me for one more semester (Fall 2011) while I try again. Problem is, the only grant I know of that I might possibly get in time to go into the field in the Spring of 2012 is the NSF DIGG. Everything else reports back between March and May/June. Does anyone have any suggestions for dissertation funding (research funding, not writing funding) I could apply for that has a Summer/Early Fall Deadline, or that I might hear back from by January?

I know you need some specs to really help me, so here they are: Anthropology Ph.D. student; I will be ABD by the middle of this summer. My research is related to gender, public health, and the former Yugoslavia.

Please let me know if you have any ideas, I would really, really appreciate it.

Well, you just missed the Wenner-Gren deadline. I recommend going to talk to a grants specialist at your university about how to search for grants and identify appropriate ones. It may be possible to identify several small grants that you could string together to have enough money to get you started. It's hard to tell you exactly where to turn without knowing precisely what it is you do and want to do. You might also want to look into alternate jobs on campus or adjuncting nearby in case you can't get into the field in the spring. Good luck!
