2010 New Voices Grants - Deadline March 1

WHO: Eligible to receive New Voices funding are 501(c)3 organizations and education institutions, including community groups, public broadcasters, independent media, colleges and universities, and individuals working under the sponsorship of a nonprofit fiscal agent.

WHAT: Only start-up news initiatives can receive funding. Ongoing efforts are not eligible unless they are proposing a new project or product.

WHERE: Projects can produce news and information for a geographic area such as a small town, city, county, state or region. Or they can serve a community of interest. Of the eight projects to be funded in 2010, at least three grants are targeted for news initiatives in the 26 communities where the Knight brothers once owned newspapers. See that list:
