We are holding an internal competition to choose the nominee for the 2021 funding cycle. If you are interested in applying for this award, please read the materials on the program website, including selection criteria and resources for applicants, and review the resource links, such as the scholar’s program application guide and FAQs for important details.

Scholar applicants must select one of the two focus areas the foundation identified for funding priority:
