The 2025 CEI is coming...

One event we look forward to in each new year is the re-opening of the Community Engagement Initiative. $100,000 will be available to support work done in collaboration with community partners that strengthens relationships, deepens knowledge, and has meaningful impact on issues that matter.

Make sure you subscribe to our newsletter so you don't miss the opening announcement (likely in early February). In the meantime, please have a look at the previously funded proposals.
