Grant funds
The Boston Scientific Foundation supports high quality, evidence-based K-12 science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education programs as well as programs aimed at improving health outcomes in areas specifically related to non-communicable cancer, diabetes, respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, gastrointestinal and urologic diseases or disorders. Grant funds must be used to primarily target services to economically disadvantaged populations.
Funding is limited, and submission of an application (even one that meets our stated criteria) does not guarantee that a grant will be made to your organization. We receive hundreds of applications for grant support, not all of which can be funded.
Grant application process
Grant applications are accepted twice annually during the designated timeframes noted below. Organizations may submit one application per region each calendar year. Funding decisions are based on available resources and the degree to which proposals meet our charitable giving criteria, compared to other grant submissions from that region. Please review the eligibility guidelines and FAQs below for details. Questions may be directed to foundation@bsci.com.
