Infrastructure Grants 2016
OR internal deadline: 3/31/16
LOI due to sponsor: 7/1/16
OSP deadline: 8/18/16
Sponsor deadline: 8/26/16
These grants are not for a specific research project, but rather for resources to allow more research to be done. They support institutions with the potential for more participation in childhood cancer clinical trials, but which currently lack the necessary resources (primarily support for Clinical Research Associates). Preference is given to institutions with high needs and low philanthropic support in geographical areas where St. Baldrick’s funds are raised. Institutions which do not currently receive other St. Baldrick’s grants are also given preference. (The average grant will be $25,000–$50,000.)

Please submit:
