[RFP Bulletin]

Lindbergh Foundation Accepting Applications for Efforts to Balance Technology and Natural/Human Environment

Deadline: June 12, 2003

Each year, the Charles A. and Anne Morrow Lindbergh Foundation (http://www.lindberghfoundation.org/) provides grants of up to $10,580 (a symbolic amount representing the cost of the Spirit of St. Louis) to individuals for work in a wide spectrum of disciplines that furthers the Lindberghs’ vision of “a balance between the advance of technology and the preservation of the natural/human environment.”

Applications for Lindbergh Grants are invited from the United States and abroad. Grants are made in the following categories: agriculture; aviation/aerospace; conservation of natural resources, including animals, plants, water, and general conservation (land, air, energy, etc.); education, including humanities/education, the arts, and intercultural communication; exploration; health, including biomedical research, health and population sciences, and adaptive technology; and waste minimization and management. A Jonathan Lindbergh Brown Grant may be given to a project to support adaptive technology or biomedical research that seeks to redress imbalance between an individual and his or her human environment.

The deadline for grant applications is the second Thursday of June in the year preceding the awarding of funds.

See the Lindbergh Foundation Web site for complete program information.
