We have over $12,000 available for this round of funding. This money belongs to you as a member of the buggy community to enhance your enjoyment of the sport! If you have ideas that you think will enhance your buggy experience, we want to hear from you!<br><br>Submissions are due by September 15, and will be reviewed by the Buggy Endowed Fund Committee the following week. Applicants will have 1 week to respond to committee feedback before the final vote. Approved grants will then be announced October 1st.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Proposals can be specific to your team. Please include some details on how the community as a whole will benefit from funding your project. For example, you might share documentation of your process, publish a video, or give a talk about your findings. You might build something to collect better data during rolls, test out a new material, or build something to make chores easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><strong>Apply Here:<br><a href=\"http:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/2025fallgrant\">http:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/2025fallgrant<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For RD 2025 Buggy Enhancement Grants, we approved $5,573 to fund 7 projects from 8 different organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"303\" src=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-1024x303.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-1024x303.png 1024w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-300x89.png 300w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-768x228.png 768w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-1536x455.png 1536w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image.png 1775w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on the grant program, including previously approved grant applications, materials and findings from previously approved grants, how to spend your grant money, and more, please read All <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1pyWRr3NF9L6d-QIjYwqcCgQVsd6XE4hQaKJj4vBvF_w\/edit?tab=t.0\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1pyWRr3NF9L6d-QIjYwqcCgQVsd6XE4hQaKJj4vBvF_w\/edit?tab=t.0\">About Buggy Enhancement Grants<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is time to submit your ideas for Buggy Enhancement Grants for the fall semester!
