Describe the purpose of the stipend, location and date, including the date in which the funds must be received. We recommend to send the requests at minimum 12 weeks before the event so we have enough time to review, ask questions and send you the funds. Also let us know what other forms of sponsorship you have applied for.
Make sure you explain how this stipend is designed to help grow the community. We would love to have an overview of other BEAM related activities/meetups/trainings/conferences located in that area, the number of attendees, frequency, and such.
For workshops/trainings please include the staff:student ratio, the amount of hands-on training time and a lesson plan with learning outcomes for participants.

Describe who will be the beneficiaries of the stipend and the expected size of the event. Please note that the EEF may only be able to provide partial funding for a proposal so let us know if this is acceptable to you. Be sure to include a breakdown of the amount you are requesting. Example: 1200$ total ($700 for venue, $300 for travel, $200 for food).
If the beneficiary is the organizer of an event, we request that the EEF logo be placed on your site as a sponsor.

The EEF would like to see how the stipend was used so we require that we receive a report that will help us understand the impact that the stipends are having and how the activities are received by the community. We require to receive this report within one month of the event. Please describe in this section what items you will include on the report and what follow up activities do you plan on. For example: blog posts, post events write-ups, web pages, project updates, lessons learned (what went well and what needs to improve), the feedback from the participants, social media, number of attendees, demographics, and such.
