Oracle Corporation's Help Us Help Foundation's Tech Grants

Agency: Help Us Help Foundation
Deadline: Aug. 31, 2003

With financial support provided by database software giant Oracle
Corporation, the nonprofit Help Us Help Foundation assists K-12 public
schools and youth organizations in economically challenged communities
to obtain information technology tools.

Grants of computer equipment and software are available to schools and
youth organizations in the U.S. that provide educational programs in
low-income communities. The foundation will donate new Internet
appliances and laser printers as well as all the ancillary equipment
necessary to connect the devices, including network hubs, cables, and
electrical surge protectors.

K-12 public and public charter schools are eligible for assistance
through the program if a significant number of their students qualify
for the subsidized lunch program (roughly 50 percent for elementary
schools and 35 percent for middle and high schools) or can otherwise be
documented as low-income. Community-based organizations are eligible if
they have 501(c)(3) or 7871 tribal government status and provide
educational services to youth who lack access to technology. In
addition, low-income youth must comprise at least 50 percent of the
total population served by the organization annually.

Applicants, who must submit a preliminary application online, are
encouraged to submit their applications early. The foundation accepts a
limited number of applications each cycle and will stop accepting
applications once the maximum is reached.

For complete guidelines and online application forms, see the Help Us
Help Foundation Web site.

An additional deadline is February 29, 2004.
