The competition provides funding for three projects, covering both educational and infrastructural initiatives. Its aim is to support and improve the learning process for students and teachers living in rural areas who face educational and infrastructure-related challenges.
The grant competition consists of three stages:
Schools must submit a 100-word project proposal describing the core issue, the proposed solution, and the intended goal of the project. A key requirement is that students must be involved in the project preparation alongside the school administration.
A jury will select 20 finalist schools for the second round. These schools must submit a detailed project plan along with a complete budget.
Final selection of the winning schools. Each winning school will receive 8,000 GEL from the foundation, to be used for the educational or infrastructural goals presented in their project.
