Apply for a Grant to Support STEM Programming at Your Library
The federal
Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) has recently announced a funding opportunity for STEM-related programming, which is open to state and local governments, non-profits and institutions of higher education, among others. Visit the
CNCS website for
application instructions and additional information. New applicants
are encouraged to apply. Submission of a Notice of Intent to Apply is required to be eligible for this competition and is due
Wednesday, December 10, 2014 at 5:00pm, eastern. Applications are due
Wednesday, January 21, 2015 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time to CNCS.
For state-level applicants
only: do not provide information directly to CNCS, but rather to the commission in the state the applicant intends to operate the program.
State Commissions and Territory deadlines are earlier than the CNCS deadlines, so prospective state applicants are encouraged to contact the commission in the state or territory where they intend to apply as soon as possible.
