Grant for Photojournalists

Here's a rare grant especially for photojournalists posted in the International Journalists' Network. Take note that the deadline is on Sunday, July 15.

Photojournalists worldwide can still apply for the US$5,000 Howard Chapnick Grant, provided by the W. Eugene Smith Memorial Fund. Last day to apply is July 15.
Organizers say the grant is intended to encourage and support leadership in “fields ancillary to photojournalism, such as editing research, education and management.”

Activities that could be funded include a long-term sabbatical project, an internship, or a planned program of education. According to the fund’s Board of Trustees, special consideration will go to projects that promote social change or address major questions facing photojournalism.
