Remember, they also like to see how the technology will be integrated into the school curriculum. As you begin to develop your idea for a technology project or program also explore potential funding sources. Look to your own state department of education for funding streams. Next, look around your own state to find foundations and corporations that might fund technology projects. You can learn about foundations and corporations in your state by checking with your local library.
Many libraries maintain grant-writing collections.
It is important to take the time to carefully research your funding sources. The better the match between your idea and the funder, the better the chances for funding. When researching potential funders, also look at the other projects they fund. After you have narrowed your funding list, contact each source for current information on submission deadlines, application procedures, contact person and mailing address. The contact name is very important.
