I’m sorry, I can’t seem to find the application for the Making the Future Afterschool and Summer program grant opportunity. The posted link seems to take me to the scholarship application. Can you please steer me to this application?
Howdy Jim, Cognizant has updated their Making the Future Page and I can no longer find it as well. I will let you know where it is the moment they get back to us. Thanks for letting us know!- Steve

Hi Steve,

Thank you!
Hello Joe, you will find the grant application link at the bottom of the page, all the way to the right.
I am a retired science teacher with 33 years in the classroom. I now co-own http://www.3dprintingedu.com and we are looking for teaching opportunities in the NY- Long Island area. WE have partnered with Nassau Boces and are working with several school districts. We hope to expand our exposure and to hire new teachers to ensure we can meet the coming need.
