The Grants Committee is actually in the process of discussing funding for a Riftbound Judge App on Apple iOS.

The proposed project must not simply pay people to voluntee<\/strong>r- What counts as volunteer work that is central and normal Judge Foundry volunteer actions? That&#8217;s a great question, and it makes this statement\/rule difficult to dissect and analyze. Luckily, the Board and the Grants Committee generated and reviewed a list of actions that would be considered core volunteer work for JF, and in turn, would exclude a grant from receiving funding: Creation\/Providing of exam content, serving on committees, working on official projects, serving in leadership positions (Board, Regional Advocates, Committee\/Project Leads, etc.), proctoring exams, writing reviews outside of a contest, and\/or serving on advancement panels. If your Project Grant does not compensate in any of these core volunteer domains, your Grant will be considered for funding.<br><br><strong>2. The proposed project must benefit the judging community.<\/strong><br>&#8211; As a judge certification organization which serves all of its members, we want to provide funding to grants that serve the judging community, as a whole. If you do not know how to turn a grant that is designed for a specific population of individuals, the Grants Committee can help you scale it back.<br><br><strong>3. The proposed project must be focused on the United States and Canada.<\/strong><br>&#8211; Judge Foundry is the judge certification organization for the United States and Canada, so the project should focus its efforts on the judges in those geographical locations. <br><br><strong>4. The lead of the proposed project and a majority of the project&#8217;s members must be Judge Foundry members in good standing.<\/strong><br>&#8211; This is a floating measure. Meaning, a project won&#8217;t be instantly de-funded if a contributor quits and moves it from 52% JF members to 48%. But if people want access to the organization&#8217;s resources, they need to be members of the organization. This also means that a majority, including the Project Lead, need to be American and Canadian judges.<br><br><strong>5. The proposed project must comply with any other guidelines established by the Board of Directors.<\/strong><br>&#8211; Nothing super complicated here; no funding of illegal shenanigans or projects that go against Judge Foundry&#8217; mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you to Jenn and their team for their focused efforts and detailed work here, already.
