Eligibility Criteria

They welcome proposals where Michelson Spark Grant funds are part of a larger overall project with multiple funding streams.
They will not be funding initiatives that primarily seek to develop Open Educational Resources (OER) content during this Michelson Spark Grant cycle. While they realize there is a tremendous desire from faculty for this type of support, they are leveraging their funding to effect broader systemic change at this time.
For this cycle of funding they have decided to focus their impact on organizations that are doing work in California. Organizations whose work does not impact California will be ineligible for this opportunity.
Preference will be given to grants that cover a specific self-contained milestone focus including inflection points, things that may open up a new foothold with a partner (i.e. enabling a new partnership with a market leader), or a new proof of concept.
For this funding cycle they will not be funding general operating expenses such as rent, utilities, server costs, etc.
