About this grant

Supports 'undiscovered researchers, builders, and creatives' working on path-breaking ideas. Deliberately open — no academic credentials or particular job history required, and no geographic restriction.

Who can apply

OPEN WORLDWIDE — no geographic restrictions. Applicants must be 18 years or older. No specific academic credentials or job history are required; the program explicitly states it does not require them. Aimed at individuals rather than institutions.

  2. Gather your basics: mission, the problem you address, your program plan, and a budget for what you'd do with the funding.
  3. Write the proposal — or have GrantOrb draft it for you from your organization's profile, tailored to O'Shaughnessy Fellowships & Grants, in minutes instead of weeks.
