Grants Calendar - $75,000 & Under

Overview: these are funding sources that Open Source Ecology will submit grants/letters of inquiry to where the opportunity is for $75,000 or less.

Grant Opportunities Calendar

Overview:

  • Sheet A - Grants w/ Deadlines: these are all grant opportunities that have cleared an initial pre-screening process and that have deadlines. Foundations may be listed twice: once for the LOI deadline, and another time for the grant application deadline.
  • Sheet B - Grants w/o Deadlines: these are all grant opportunities that have cleared an initial pre-screening process and that do not have deadlines.

Edit: Source

Foundations - Prospects to Research

Overview:

  • Sheet A - Heuristic Research: these are foundations that have funded non-profit organizations with similar missions to Open Source Ecology's. The data in the first column is dynamically referenced from the spreadsheet further down the page titled Foundations - Funded Similar NGOs, and it is filtered to remove redundancies. Each foundation will be looked at in-depth using the Foundation Directory Online and added to the Annual Grants Calendar if they meet our requirements.
  • Sheet B - Brute Force Research: these are foundations that were identified through an exhaustive research process into all of the grant opportunities listed in the Foundation Directory Online. (See Search Keywords)
