Every year there has been a grant program that awards photojournalists individual grants of $20,000 each, for a total of $100,000. Grant recipients are given the opportunity to sign a one-year exclusive-rights deal whereby their work will be marketed and available for license to customers worldwide while retaining copyright of their imagery.


Upcoming grant application deadline will be November 2008.

Two grants will be announced in February and May of 2009). Additional grants will be announced on a different month.
