  • Submitted Tech Awards Grant to Trang for submission (this still needs revision)
  • looked at Unicef and UNHCR for possible grants, did not work out
  • Looked into Kiva as a Microfinancing group for AguaClara
  • Emailed Monroe about budget, now we are using the one from the NSF grant recently submitted by Monroe
  • Emailed Monroe about tax status, he got that info back to me. He and Narayana helped me to understand whom to talk to in order to compile a budget for the Pilot Plant

This Week

  • Looked over the NSF grant submission as a possible template for future grants, preliminary results of analysis look good
  • Was explained how the Microfinancing organizations worked, and how we wanted to use them, this caused me to stop looking at Kiva so heavily as a source of funding.
  • Looked into water bottling companies in the US such as Pepsi, Coke a Cola, and Poland Springs and possible sponsors/funders.
  • Continue to compile master list of contacts with Brandon
  • Compiling the Shortlist of Funders. I will email this to Monroe as the rest of AguaClara when it is complete.
