Proposals should focus on funding needs and activities beginning after the November award date and concluding within 1 year of the grant award
Programs must be related to non-communicable cancer, diabetes, respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, gastrointestinal or urologic diseases and disorders. Please note that grants for mental health programs were offered for a limited term (2020-2024) and are no longer being accepted
Grant amounts vary depending on the number of participants to be served, expected measurable impact, and competition from other strong applicants during any given grant cycle. A typical range is $10,000-$30,000 but a limited number of larger grants may be considered for past grantees with a history of proven success. If a partial grant could allow you to still offer the program with modifications, this should be noted within the proposal.
Our mission is to support the STEM education and health of economically disadvantaged residents who live within 60 miles of major Boston Scientific facilities in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. We do not consider proposals for programs that may be hosted in one of the eligible communities if most participants are not residents of that community.
