Cross-checked 5 of 5 key facts

Confirmed Our best read Not stated

Good to know

  • +Individuals can apply, not only registered organisations, which is rare for a grant of this size
  • +Mentorship and promotion come bundled with the money
  • +The selection timeline and both payment dates are published up front
  • +Excluded countries are disclosed openly rather than buried

Worth checking yourself

  • !Submissions are capped at the first 200 fully-completed applications, so the real close can land well before 10 August
  • !Incomplete applications are discarded without review and the team does not answer individual questions
  • !No funding for salaries, travel, capital campaigns, conferences or prizes
  • !A 1-minute video and a recent professional reference letter are mandatory, so allow preparation time
  • !Recipients are not notified until January or February, a long wait after an August close

What we could not confirm

  • ?The org page gives the closing date as August 10th but never states a closing time or timezone. It does say the window opened on July 8th at 12:01 a.m. Central, so Central time is the likely reference, but the page does not say so for the close and I did not want to guess
