The IEEE Humanitarian Activities Committee (HAC) is tasked with
supporting the IEEE Board-endorsed vision of IEEE volunteers around the
world carrying out and/or supporting impactful humanitarian activities at
the local level, i.e., working with the “feet on the ground.”
HAC is currently soliciting proposals for humanitarian projects
aligned with this vision. The committee will review proposals during three
periods in 2016 and will grant awards in the amount of US$20,000 –
US$100,000.
Project activities to be funded by the grant must be completed by the
end of calendar year 2016 to be considered. The next submission deadline
for proposals is 15 August 2016.

In addition to humanitarian projects, HAC is currently soliciting
proposals for the support of elements of events that are
aligned with this vision. Support proposals may include financial
resources, publicity in HAC materials, content development (e.g. HAC
assistance in determining session topics and/or potential speakers), HAC promotional materials, and/or other assistance. HAC seeks to support a range of elements of events across IEEE regions worldwide. The next submission deadline for proposals is 15 September 2016.
