The NPN staff is happy to announce the funding of the following projects during the fiscal year 2010 winter cycle. We are especially grateful to the panelists, made up of NPN Partner and Board of Directors representatives, for dedicating their time to reviewing the proposals and adding their diverse voices and insightful comments to the decision making process.
NPN received more applications than we could fund. Many of the applications were very strong- if you did not get funded in this round, we strongly encourage you to apply again in the summer. Summer application deadlines will take place in July of 2010.
Follow the links below for a description of the projects:
