The Bay Area's own Full Circle Fund (of which I recently became a proud member) is seeking grantee nominations for the Technology Impact Circle. The TIC is focused on "digital inclusion" and supports organizations whose work is aligned with the TIC's own theory of change. The five core tracks include:
- Providing access (computers, internet access, tech services)
- Providing training (youth, parents, seniors, small business, nonprofit
capacity) - Building community (democracy, storytelling, citizen journalism, mobile)
- Supporting workforce development (education, vocational, CTC volunteers)
- Exploring issues of privacy/transparency (GIS-based technologies,
information sharing)
Nominations are due by May 25th and can be submitted online. Submissions should include the organization's name, URL, and a one-sentence description of its services and mission.
