Now in its 17th year, the Mission Micro-Grant Program awards annual grants of up to $200 to any full or part-time Detroit Mercy faculty or staff member in support of a wide range of activities that promote Detroit Mercy’s mission of being a Catholic, Mercy, Jesuit, urban and student-centered university.
There are only four criteria a project or activity must meet to be considered for a Mission Micro Grant:
- The project or activity must promote one or more elements of Detroit Mercy’s mission.
- You must personally be involved in the project or activity.
- You must be employed by the University during the time the project or activity takes place.
- The grant monies must be spent in the same fiscal year in which they are received.
Please visit the Mission Micro-Grant website to learn more about what type of projects are eligible for funding and project deadlines. You can also browse previously-funded projects and activities.
The application process is very simple. This year’s one-page online applications are due Friday, Oct. 11.
Questions can be sent to Rosemary Weatherston at weatherr@udmercy.edu.
