Lenfest Institute for Journalism Invites Applications for Facebook Journalism Project Community Network Grants

The Lenfest Institute for Journalism is inviting applications for its Facebook Journalism Project (FJP) Community Network Grant Program.

Established to support publishers through trainings, programs, and partnerships, the FJP Community Network works to strengthen communities by connecting people with meaningful journalism. Through the program, grants of up to $25,000 as well as opportunities to connect with industry experts will be awarded in support of efforts that advance that mission. Examples of fundable projects include efforts (by a person or publisher) to build a new business around memberships, report in an underserved community, or build a tool that helps local storytellers find and engage news audiences. Projects are not required to use Facebook tools or products.

Eligible applicants include for-profit and nonprofit organizations in the U.S. and individuals working for nonprofit or for-profit organizations.

See the Lenfest Institute for Journalism website for complete program guidelines and application instructions.

Deadline: November 6, 2019
