Program Overview
Beyond fast funding, Garden Grants facilitates learning and collaboration by publicly sharing the problems that proposals address while protecting applicants’ novel ideas. Proposals have two parts:
- The Problem Statement describes the motivating factor, specific bottleneck, and actionable goals of the project. In the spirit of growing knowledge and community, problem statements are made public.
- The Solution Statement describes the the proposed work to address the Problem Statement. To protect applicants’ ideas, Solution Statements are kept confidential.
We invite you to submit a Solution Statement to either your own original Problem Statement, or to a pre-written Problem Statement from our Problem Statement Repository.
Proposals also include a timeline of milestones, a high-level budget, and team bios.
