What do you sponsor?
We sponsor projects in two primary categories:
Structured Deliverable Projects
These result in a defined creative, civic, or professional outcome and may require contracts, vendor coordination, or legal navigation.
Examples include:
• Self publishing a book with contracted editing, design, and formatting
• Producing a podcast, film, song or audio drama with paid engineering and post production
• Small batch craft business where funds cover equipment purchased through verified vendors
• Staging a local play or performance with contracted venue rental, technical crew, or production support
• Developing a tabletop game with contracted illustration, playtesting coordination, and layout design
• Creating a curriculum or digital course with layout and accessibility contractors
Participation Access Projects
These support enrollment in structured learning or professional development opportunities.
Examples include:
• Enrollment in a workshop, certification, or academic course
• Music lessons or art instruction
• Enrollment in vocational training programs
• Registration for a professional conference
• Fees for licensure preparation courses or exam registration
• Structured apprenticeships or mentored training programs
All funds are paid directly to verified third party vendors, instructors, or service providers. We do not provide direct cash grants.
Participants are required to work with an assigned caseworker. All purchases must be approved and processed through our vendor and payment system. We do not reimburse participants for goods or services purchased outside of our process.
