***Please review the eligibility criteria on the Applicant FAQ page to ensure your organization is eligible to apply. *** 

The Summer Discovery application will be completed and submitted using an electronic platform called Submittable.  Submittable will allow you to save your progress and fill out the application in more than one sitting; it is also possible for multiple people to collaborate on one application.  Please review the information below for details.

  • You may preview the Summer Discovery application questions by clicking here.
    • A note for returning applicants:  In order to streamline the process for 2024 grantees, there are questions that ask if program elements have remained the same since last year.  If the answer is “yes”, you will be able to move to the next item. 
  • When you are ready to begin your Summer Discovery application, click APPLY NOW and create a Submittable account (if you already have a Submittable account, you may use the existing account).  You will fill out a short eligibility form and, if eligible, proceed to the application questions. 
  • If you plan to have multiple people collaborating on your application, the first person from your organization to create a Submittable account will be the Application Owner.  We recommend making sure that this is the main point of contact for your organization’s application.
    • The Application Owner can click Manage Collaborators on the top right-hand side of the form, enter the email addresses of collaborators, and click invite.  The collaborators will receive an email prompting them to create an account.
    • Collaborators will be able to edit your organization’s application, but only the Application Owner can submit. 
    • Application Owners should coordinate with collaborators to ensure there is a clear plan for completing the application.  If multiple people are working on the application concurrently, one person may overwrite another person’s changes. 

Apply for funding by the early decision deadline on December 13, 2024, or the final application deadline on January 31, 2025
