Help us find funding
You can help us get ideas on how to fund our operations. Some ideas:
- Do you know of specific grants we could seek? And would you like to help us write the application?
- If you are from academia and are applying for EU funds, you could include us in your consortium as dissemination partner. That will greatly increase the probability of getting your funds.
- If you happen to be a philanthropist who can spare some capital, please talk to us. There is no more measurable, scalable and high impact way to educate the world
Nominate us for an award
In addition to the appreciation and recognition of the our hard work, an award sometimes includes prize money. And we need that money to pay for our operations.
For example, you could nominate us for a
- Webby Award (in the category Education Website)
- Index Award
- Red Dot Design Award
- European Design Award
- or another award you know of
If you succeed, we'll give you a permanent place in our hall of fame and on our editorial board.
