Boeing Grant Applications Begin Monday

[Ryan Dognaux]

I've been told a full list of teams will be posted sometime this week. It's really great how Boeing committed to a 5 year partnership with FIRST to help support teams.

Any idea where they are posting? Internally at Boeing?

[Ryan Dognaux]

I just wanted to remind all teams that have a Boeing mentor to apply for the Boeing FIRST grant by October 25th. Your team must have a Boeing employed mentor in order to apply for the grant.

Does anyone have any word on this grant? We applied again this season but haven't heard anything yet to my knowledge and I've not seen it mentioned anywhere recently.

With the first event payment deadline looming, it'd be great for word to get out about recipients sooner rather than later.

It's also entirely possible that I'm out of the loop on this on my team.

Boeing grants are usually announced after NASA grants are announced. It's just the process they follow.

We received word late last night about the status of our Boeing grant applications, so others should be getting word soon if they haven't already.

[Ryan Dognaux]

We got the good news just a little bit ago! Boeing mentors should check their e-mail and expect one shortly if they have not already received one.

1323 got some fantastic news as well.

Thank you BOEING!

Team 316 will proudly be displaying Boeing this year!

Thanks Boeing

To all the teams who received Boeing funding this year, take a few moments to find out who to send a thank you message to and make sure you do it soon.

You can ask your Boeing mentor who would be appropriate to contact and if that doesn't pan out, PM me and I will find the information for you.
