The Ford Motor Company Fund is offering two types of grants to support creative service-learning projects — the Mustang Model grant and Explorer Model grant.
Mustang Model grants work this way: Ford collects project requests from nonprofits and will post them on their website Sept. 17. The University community then has until Sept. 29 to apply for one of the projects.
The Explorer Model grant allows faculty-student teams to choose their own project and agency partner. Proposals are due Sept. 10. For more information on applying for Explorer Model grants, please visit the Institute for Leadership and Service’s website.
Considering applying for either grant? Please contact Director of Service Learning Tim Hipskind, S.J. at hipskijt@udmercy.edu to obtain more details.
