Ten $10,000 reporting grants issued per year.

How to Apply

Applications due January 31st

Reporting grant applicants need to submit a well-researched and compelling story pitch, three published or aired work samples, a resume, and two letters of reference.

Although not required, a letter from a media outlet expressing interest in publishing or airing your story will substantially improve your chances of receiving a grant.

  • Fellows will be chosen by a panel of working editors and journalists.
  • We do not assign stories and cannot consult on proposals or story pitches before they are submitted. We do not accept proposals via email.
  • Awards are intended to cover reporting costs and living expenses. We expect news organizations to pay journalists for their work once it is published or aired.
