Can this grant support ongoing projects, or only new initiatives?

Modified on Fri, 7 Aug at 12:15 PM

The Community Action Grant may support both ongoing projects and new initiatives. The primary consideration is alignment with AAUW’s mission to advance gender equity in STEM for girls in grades K–12.

Applications for ongoing projects should clearly explain:

  • Evidence of effectiveness and impact to date
  • How grant funds would strengthen, enhance, or scale the project
  • Why additional funding is needed at this time

Applications for new initiatives should clearly explain:

  • How the initiative builds on existing organizational experience and capacity
  • Evidence supporting the proposed approach
  • A clear and feasible implementation plan

In all cases, applicants must provide clear justification for proposed costs. Funding decisions are based on potential impact, alignment with AAUW’s mission, and organizational capacity.
