Journalism Grant Deadlines

Friday, April 01, 2011

We accept letters of inquiry (LOIs) from organizations for three types of requests:

Grant request of $50,000 or more:
Requests greater than $50,000 must be approved by Board members at the Journalism Program’s annual board meeting in early September. The deadline for LOIs for more than $50,000 is May 1 or the first business day in May.

Grant requests under $50,000:
LOIs requesting less than $50,000 are accepted on a rolling basis and are reviewed in February, July and November. We accept LOIs for this level throughout the year. It sometimes takes us several weeks to review the many LOIs we receive, so please be patient.

Specialized Reporting Institutes (SRIs):
LOIs for these intensive specialized training conferences for working reporters are reviewed in November by our administrative partner, the Poynter Institute. For application instructions, review the SRI guidelines here. The deadline to apply for 2012 funding has passed, but you can check back in November 2012 to apply for the next round. For more information, email McCormickSRI@poynter.org.
