Has anyone ever gotten a free grant from the government for college? Not FAFSA, but other gov. grants?

I start school in the fall but I need extra money because I start my nursing clinicals and i'm not going to be able to work full time. Any suggestions on how I can do this? I have a house payment and a car payment. I've heard about free Government loans and I looked it up on the Net and you have to buy the software to find the grants. I was curious if anyone out there has ever done that and received money.???
