How to Apply

Nonprofit organizations seeking to start or implement a community enterprise utilizing technology to achieve economic empowerment and/or increase civic engagement in California’s underserved communities are invited to apply for a Pipeline Investment by sending a Letter of Inquiry (LOI).

ZeroDivide has no set deadlines for submitting materials. Given the nature of our funding process we receive and review applications on a rolling basis and award grants throughout the year. Upon receipt of an LOI we will contact you within 6 weeks with the status of your request.

Each Pipeline LOI will be reviewed for a match to the ZeroDivide investment goals.

Those determined to have the best match will be invited to submit a full proposal.

Eligible organizations seeking an investment from ZeroDivide must be prepared to track and report enterprise outcomes as well as specific results that demonstrate measurable social impact. In the application, organizations must indicate the targeted outcomes and what results, as specified on the application, the organization will measure.

Pipeline LOI’s must address the following areas, in no more than 2-3 pages. Please be succinct. If you are invited to submit a full proposal, you will have an opportunity to more fully describe your community enterprise.
Please note the the LOI application process contains two parts.

1. You must first register on our website at zerodivide.org/investments/online_appli.... You will then be sent an email with instructions and a link to a web form cover sheet to complete and a Word document template to fill out with the narrative portion of your proposal. 2. The narrative portion will need to be submitted as an attachment to grants@zerodivide.org. Your application will not be considered complete until both portions have been received.
