Do you know of a project that needs funding, is not commercial in 
nature, and benefits the Internet community with the ARIN service 
region? Apply now for a 2020 ARIN Community Grant. The call for 
applications is open through 10 June 2020.

The ARIN Community Grant Program provides financial grants in support of 
operational and research projects that improve the overall Internet 
industry and Internet user environment that advance ARIN’s mission and 
broadly benefit the Internet community within the ARIN region. For 2020, 
the ARIN Board of Trustees has approved a total expenditure of up to 
$60,000 (USD) for grants of varying amounts, starting at $1,000 (USD) 
and based on project need.

Projects must fit into one or more of these four broad categories:

- Internet technical improvements that promote and facilitate the 
expansion, development, and growth of the infrastructure of the Internet 
consistent with the public interest
- Registry processes and technology improvements that help maintain a 
globally consistent and highly usable Internet Numbers Registry system
- Informational outreach that advances the Internet on topics such as, 
but not limited to: IPv6 deployment, Internet research, and Internet 
governance
- Research related to ARIN’s mission and operations
