Hello,
Just letting you know that your post was moved into the proper category of Foundation->Grants.

Additionally, the Grants Committee meets semi-weekly, and unfortunately, your post was made just before the meeting started and there was not enough time to properly evaluate the proposal beforehand so it will be reviewed before the next meeting which will be December 13th.

Thank you,
Kino

Hello Wojtas,

The Grants Committee reviewed your proposal and has unfortunately decided to Reject it.

The proposal is rather vague, and has nothing to do with Sia specifically – Sia is not even mentioned once. It would not have much impact on our community or address significant needs.

Regards,
Kino on behalf of the Sia Foundation and Grants Committee
