Subject: Request for Proposals, Endangered Language Fund

The Endangered Language Fund provides grants for language maintenance and
linguistic field work.  The work most likely to be funded is that which serves
both the native community and the field of linguistics.  Work which has
immediate applicability to one group and more distant application to the other
will also be considered.

Publishing subventions are a low priority, although they will be considered.
Proposals can originate in any country.  The language involved must be in
danger of disappearing within a generation or two. Endangerment is a continuum,
and the location on the continuum is one factor in our funding decisions.

Eligible expenses: consultant fees, tapes, films, travel, etc. Overhead is not
allowed.

Grants are normally for a 1-year period, though extensions may be
applied for.  We expect grants in this round to be less than $4,000, and to
average about $2,000.
