FIRST Washington Grant will open 9-14
As we said in communications over the summer, FIRST Washington Grants will be handled a bit differently this year. Here are the important changes to note:
- You will have to fill out a grant application to be considered for any funding that FIRST Washington manages
- The grant form will need to be filled out for each team you would like to be considered for funding
- Grants will no longer be deducted from your FIRST Washington registration, they will be issued separately based on the info you submit in the grant application as well as your school requirements (if you are a school based team)
The grant will open 9-14 and will close 10-5. As stated above, if you want your team to be considered for any funding that FIRST Washington handles, you will need to fill out this application.
We will post the application link and information on the application on the FIRST Washington website once the grant is open as well as send that information out in the blog on 9-15.
