Grants for creative service-learning projects

The Ford Motor Company Fund is offering two types of grants to support creative service-learning projects.

The Mustang Model grant features a simplistic process and offers involvement with a number of nonprofit organizations. Applications are due July 28. You must be a Detroit Mercy employee to apply.

The Explorer Model grant is more flexible and allows faculty and student teams to choose their own project and agency partner. Applications are due Sept. 10. For more information on applying for Explorer Model grants, please visit the Institute for Leadership and Service’s Ford Community Corps Partnership webpage.

Considering applying for either grant? Please contact Director of Service Learning Tim Hipskind, S.J. at hipskijt@udmercy.edu to express your interest and obtain more details, including log-in information for the Mustang Model grant’s website.
