Make Sure You Apply For The Correct Technology Grants

Make Sure You Apply For The Correct Technology Grants


by Patty Goff


Once you develop something new, or invent a new concept, you will need backing to proceed. Technology grants can be funded by the Andrew Mellon Foundation. They are there to help strengthen humanity, cultural heritage as well as arts and higher education. Organizers will be able to determine if the project will fit within the foundations mission and interests.

It all began with the change of many natural resources into simple tools. The invention of controlling fire helped to change the accessibility of food and in the same way the creation of the wheel helped with travelling. The more modern developments are the invention of the internet, telephone and printing press. These forms of communication help humans to interact with others all over the world.

Some people are even wondering if because of technology societies will improve or worsen in the years to come. Certain movements such as Neo-Luddism are saying that this will harm the environment and isolate people. This development have even got scientist aware that it has affected certain primates and dolphin communities as they have developed simple tools. They will be able pass their knowledge onto the next generation.

Once a funder has been found present the plan and ask if they are able and willing to help. Different funders prefer to receive the application for grants in different ways. Some will issue a request for proposal or RFP and will expect a response within a certain time frame. This is a solicitation made by a bidding process either by a company or agency that is interested in procurement of a service, asset or commodity.

Each year grants are given by governments, private foundations and public corporations to individuals, organizations and schools for certain projects. These funds do not have to be returned as long as they are used for what they were intended for. A grant proposal needs to be filled out in order to receive financial help.

When the budget is submitted one must use the Foundations own budget and financial report template. All expenses must be defined and all categories need to have detailed subcategories as well. If the proposal is accepted annual reports will need to be submitted as well.

Many Foundations are more than willing to give grants to those outside the country. The applications are allowed to be filled out online and once they have been received the request will be reviewed. The grant amount will vary according to what the project entails. Grants that are not usually given are generally those that have something to do with lobbying activities, annual campaigns or political purposes.

To obtain grants, one will need to adhere to the guidelines. Those that can offer the grants will have their own application forms and be sure that the approach is right. Depending on the agency some will only need a phone call to complete the first step while others will require a full proposal.
