For your convenience, our grant application process has moved to a new online portal managed by CyberGrants, allowing for a more streamlined process. All applicants will need to register with the new portal.  Please note during the open grant cycle our team is unable to provide critiques or pre-reads of proposals.

The first step of the process is to complete the eligibility quiz. Upon completion, you will be notified immediately regarding your eligibility.  If eligible, you will be automatically directed to either the community/healthcare grant application or the education grant application. The next step is to complete the application. *

Please note the portal allows you to save your work and return to your grant application at a future time, within the open grant cycle, to complete and submit your proposal. Proposals should be submitted before 11:59PM Central time on September 20.

During the application process CyberGrants will collect the names and addresses of your board of directors, as well as the top five paid employees within your organization for the purpose(s) of conducting due diligence as required under the U.S. Patriot Act of 2001, as well as applicable governmental sanctions and watch lists. For more information on CyberGrants privacy practices, please visit http://www.cybergrants.com/privacy-policy.html.

Upon completion of our review process, you will be notified regarding the disposition of your grant request. The entire review and decision-making process may take up to eight weeks after the close of the grant cycle. Funds will be disbursed for approved requests following that window, assuming all proper documentation has been received.
