DiscoverE Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day (Girl Day) Grants 2025: (Deadline 4 November, 2024)

Applications are open for the DiscoverE Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day (Girl Day) Grants 2025. Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day is an annual campaign that takes place during Engineers Week with the goal of introducing girls and all students of marginalized gender to the fascinating world of engineering. DiscoverE is excited to make available a limited number of grants ranging between $250 and $1,000 for Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day programs taking place on and around Girl Day.

Funding

• Funds will be disbursed in two payments, 50% will be paid upon grant approval and the remaining 50% will be paid upon receipt of the final report and event photos.
• Funds can be used for programmatic support, such as: site rental; food (lunches for students, etc.); transportation, photography, educational materials, essential project supplies, and postage.
• Funds cannot be used for student scholarships or tuition reimbursement.

Eligibility

• Events or activities must be offered in connection with Girl Day and take place between February 1, 2025, and April 30, 2025.
• Programs do not need to be new but must meet all other requirements.
• The project/program must target girls aged 5 to 18. If a program or event is not focused on a majority audience of girls or students of marginalized gender, apply for a DiscoverE Engineers Week Outreach Grant instead.
