A budget must be supplied (an estimate will suffice if a final version is not feasible.) The Foundation’s limited funds are based on contributions. As a result, our revised policy is to not fund travel, tuition or other educational expenses which in turn enables us to provide more evidence-based support. The Foundation will reimburse up to 15% indirect costs with proper documentation. The funding ceiling is inclusive of the indirect costs.
According to Foundation policy, the primary researcher’s salary and/or benefits will not be funded. Preference will be given to new programs. One application per team is appropriate.
