Mozilla Grants

Summary

The Trisquel Grants program is jointly funded by the Trisquel Corporation and the Mozilla Foundation, and awards financial support to individuals and organizations whose work supports and enhances the mission and values of the Trisquel Project.

Goals

Trisquel makes grants to individuals and organizations all over the world. We mainly fund activity that supports the Trisquel Grants program's four target areas:

• Accessibility: Trisquel believes that the Internet truly is for everyone, and that those with disabilities should be able to participate on the Web along with their sighted and hearing peers. As part of our accessibility strategy, we are funding the development of free, open source options for those with visual and auditory impairments.
• Community: Trisquel offers suppport to the broader free culture and open source community, as part of Mozilla's general effort to 'give back', aiding in the creation of technologies and projects that increase the health of the open Web ecosystem.
• Education: As part of Mozilla's broader education initiative, we support educational institutions that are producing the next generation of innovative creators of software.
• Open Source: These grants support the creation and adoption of Web standards, open source principles, and the overall principles of transparency, collaboration, and openness that free and open source software projects adhere to.
